===== Changes in 5.0 (In beta) =====

=== Functionality changed or added ===

  * **My Publications**
    * Easily build a list of works — articles, papers, books, etc. — that you've created and share them on your profile page on zotero.org
    * Files can optionally be made publicly available to download under a license you specify
  * **Feeds**
    * Subscribe to RSS or Atom feeds — such as those made available by academic journals — from within Zotero
    * Browse new entries and add them to your Zotero libraries with a single click, with metadata and files automatically collected from the associated webpages
  * **New syncing architecture**
    * Selective library sync
      * Choose libraries to sync from the Sync pane of the preferences
      * Individual libraries can be synced on-demand via context menu
    * Independent syncing of libraries
      * Conflicts or other problems in one library no longer prevent other libraries from syncing
    * Improved handling of very large libraries
      * Data changes are now synced incrementally rather than in a single batch
    * Improved handling of sync conflicts
      * Many situations that previously resulted in conflicts are now automatically resolved without manual resolution
  * **Improved UI responsiveness**
    * Long operations (e.g. large syncs) are now performed in the background, allowing Zotero and/or Firefox to continue to be used
  * New stacked layout option for narrower screens
    * Moves item pane below items list
    * Configurable in the General pane of the preferences
  * Search improvements
    * Simplified search condition drop-down in Advanced Search window
