One of the real advantages of systems like Zotero, Endnote, and the like is that they break bibliographic information into fields and store them in a database. When it comes time to publish or generate a list, you can select from many known formats. I was going to say hundreds of different ones, but Zotero claims to know about thousands of styles (6,750) ( https://www.zotero.org/support/styles). Since "Zotero is a project of the Roy Rosenzweig Center for History and New Media, and was initially funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, the Institute of Museum and Library Services, and the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation", I assume they've given serious consideration to the library science underlying the chosen database structure. Oh, and as I try and keep up with the suggestions coming over frameworks, please know that I am not purely cutting-and-pasting them into the library, but searching for them in WorldCat.org, then importing, so that the Zotero library builds on the collections and work of many others. We get the ISBNs, page numbers, publishers, etc. for free. Eric
