Zotero内置了一些流行的引文样式用于创建引文和文献目录,其它的超过2750种样式可以从Zotero样式仓库里下载.这些引文样式文件均是用引文样式语言 (CSL)撰写的,Mendeley和Papers文献管理工具也支持这种格式的样式文件.

Firefox版的Zotero安装引文样式,只需在Zotero引文样式仓库中点击相应样式的标题即可.

Zotero独立版安装引文样式,首先要下载引文样式文件到电脑上:在引文样式标题上点击右键,选择”保存链接为…”. 在Zotero运行状态下,双击下载的引文样式文件即可安装,或采用下面介绍的其它安装方法.

在引文样式仓库中,您即可以搜索样式名也可通过样式类型和研究领域进行过滤.勾选 “Show only unique styles”, 享有同一格式的重复引文样式将被隐藏(如,特定期刊的引文样式“Nature”, “Nature Biotechnology”和“Nature Chemistry”等,勾选后将只显示独立的引文样式”Nature”).

CSL引文样式文件(后缀名为”.csl”)也可以通过样式管理器添加.样式管理器位于Zotero首选项面板→”引用”面板→”样式”标签页.在样式管理器里,您也可以查看/删除已经安装的样式.安装引文样式的另一种方法是将CSL文件拖放到Firefox浏览器窗口中.

If a CSL style doesn’t give the expected output, first make sure that you are running the latest (stable) version of Zotero, and have the most recent version of the style installed from the Zotero Style Repository. Once you have made sure that the style deviates from the style guide, instructions for authors, or published examples, report the error to the Citation Style forums. For your post, use the title “Style Error: [Name of style]”, and give a link to, or excerpt from, the style guide that shows that the CSL style is wrong. You can also try to edit the style yourself.

If you can't find the style you're looking for in the Zotero Style Repository, feel free to request a style. You can also try to create the style yourself.
