 ===== Library Lookup =====
-If you select the Library Lookup option, Zotero will try to locate your items in an online library catalog, so you can track down a physical or online full-text copy of the resource. By default, Zotero uses the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenURL|OpenURL]] service of [[http://www.worldcat.org/|WorldCat.org]], but you can specify a different OpenURL resolver (e.g., the OpenURL resolver of your local university library) in the [[preferences/advanced#openurl|Advanced tab]] of the Zotero [[preferences]]. Most university libraries provide their OpenURL resolver link on their websites. A list of OpenURL resolver links is also available [[/support/locate/openurl_resolvers|here]].

 ===== Managing Lookup Engines =====
@@ Line 24: / Line 26: @@
 It is not currently possible to add new lookup engines using through either the Zotero desktop client or the browser Connector extensions. To add new lookup engines, you must edit the ''engines.json'' file located in the ''locate'' folder in your [[zotero_data|Zotero data directory]]. Lookup engines can be added to this file using JSON syntax specifying an [[/support/dev/creating_locate_engines_using_opensearch|OpenSearch lookup engine]]. A more user-friendly way to add lookup engines will be added in a future version.
-An ''engines.json'' file with a variety of useful lookup engines is available from [[https://github.com/bwiernik/zotero-tools]]. To use this file, download it and open it. Remove any lookup engines you don't need, then save. Place the file in the ''locate'' folder in your [[zotero_data|Zotero data directory]] (replacing the version of ''engines.json'' that is already present).

 ===== Public Library Lookup Engines =====
 A repository of thousands of local public library Lookup Engines (as well as engines for some universities and commercial databases) is available from [[http://egh.github.io/zotero-lookup-engines]].
