New ZMI Tab: ZMI:Export RIS File for Calibre Metadata

The next release of ZMI that will be uploaded within a few days will allow you to export Calibre metadata to an RIS file, and then import that RIS file into Zotero. Zotero will map that RIS data to Zotero's data fields for a "book".

It is up to you to decide what Calibre metadata is exported to the RIS file. Zotero totally controls the mapping of an RIS file to itself. ZMI offers all available Zotero mappings for a "book" for your use. It is up to you to decide what Calibre metadata is mapped into the Zotero fields that Zotero has predefined.

ZMI must work within the constraints set by Zotero in its RIS.js import translator.


See the attached.


Note that you must use standard Zotero functionality to "attach" or "link" a physical Calibre ebook file to your Zotero item. ZMI just handles that book's metadata.
