If you browse through citations in Mandala Sources, you might occasionally see "Zotero Collections" fields. These are citations from the early days of Mandala Sources. We don't currently support adding entire Zotero collections.


To import single citations from Zotero, you can export them as .ris files. Learn more at Import Citations.
