Some users, however, prefer to use their own organizing structure for files in their file system and link to them from Zotero. Using file sync via Zotero file storage or a WebDAV server, you can sync these files and comfortably access them on multiple computers. It will only be available if your chosen citation style requires abbreviated journal titles.īy default, Zotero stores all file attachments in a “storage” folder in the data directory. In documents created before the release of Zotero 4.0, you can turn on the option under “Set Document Preferences” in the word processor plugin. For new documents, the option to “Automatically Abbreviated Journal Titles” is active when using styles requiring abbreviated journal titles. The abbreviation list currently only works when using the word processor plugins. The list takes the journal title from the “Publication” field and matches it against a list of journal titles and words to create a journal abbreviation. Now, Zotero comes with a built-in journal abbreviation list. Many databases don’t populate that field properly or at all, so this required a lot of maintenance by users who needed correctly abbreviated journal titles in citations. Up to now, Zotero took journal abbreviations from the “Journal Abbr.” field. Zotero 4.0 also has a number of new features that improve citations and make syincing more flexible.
In the last blogpost I introduced some of the new features of Zotero that help you to collect and organize your references more easily.
