Hello, in order to improve the image of chemistry in the world by helping some Americans, with the help of the new media for expressing some liberties as petitioning, you can find something about a petition which could interest you in the top right-hand corner at the following address: http://eternal-cartesian.blogspot.com/ .

Comment on Reference manager: Zotero vs Endnote by David Macknet

Gustav,

Sorry - I just now happened across this and realized that I hadn’t replied.

I’m writing a PhD thesis in LaTeX, so I’m using BibTeX for my references. I had thought just to export to BibTeX format, and to leave the contents in Zotero, but Zotero omits some of the information provided by, for example, JStor. While it’s true that the elements provided by JStor are not presented in the bibliography, they are useful fields to have, to my mind. jstor_articletype, jstor_issuetitle, and jstor_formatteddate are just the three which leap out, from the very first entry in my BibTeX file.

I would probably keep using Zotero, if it didn’t lose things along the way, and if I had some means of assigning the BibTeX item name to the entries, but … well, having to spend hours renaming things, and looking through JStor and other sources trying to figure out if I’d lost anything … isn’t my idea of a good, productive day.

David, Here are the latest updates:

http://www.gustavholmberg.com/magnitude/2008/12/10/using-zotero-pt-3/

Basically, what’s happened is that I’ve gone back to Zotero 1.0. Works OK for me together with Word 2004 on Mac. What kind of idiosyncrasies do you mean?

Will you be posting a follow-up any time soon? I’m curious, as some of the idiosyncrasies of Zotero have been getting on my nerves, and I’m wondering whether to adopt Reference Manager or EndNote instead.

Robert - interesting! What has happened with the 1m Grubb Parsons reflector, the 50/60 cm double refractor, the astrograph (40 cm, was it?) (and wasn’t there a medium-sized Schmidt telescope as well?) and the buildings in Saltsjöbaden?
