In particular, I'm wondering what kinds of changes I'll need to make to my current setup, and whether it's worthwhile to use my ultra-slow coding skills to create whatever glue is still necessary. Here's my setup at present: I currently use Zotero for most of my bibliography management; it's relatively easy to get zotero to export a bibtex bibliography (cf. https://github.com/robintw/AutoZotBib), and I will switch to bibtex if absolutely necessary. I'd rather just keep using Zotero, though. I use zotxt-emacs to insert references in org files. I export my work to html and odt. I use this small bit of code to manage exports: ;; zotxt (org-add-link-type "zotero" (lambda (rest) (zotxt-select-key (substring rest 15))) (lambda (path desc format) (if (string-match "^@\\(.*\\)$" desc) (cond ((eq format 'latex) (format "\\cite{%s}" (match-string 1 desc))) ((eq format 'md) desc) ((eq format 'html) (deferred:$ (zotxt-get-item-bibliography-deferred `(:key , (substring path 15))) (deferred:nextc it (lambda (item) (plist-get item :citation-html))) (deferred:sync! it))) ((eq format 'odt) (deferred:$ (zotxt-get-item-deferred `(:key , (substring path 15)) :248bebf1-46ab-4067-9f93-ec3d2960d0cd) (deferred:nextc it (lambda (item) (plist-get item :248bebf1-46ab-4067-9f93-ec3d2960d0cd))) (deferred:sync! it))) (t nil) nil)))) currently this grabs a full html citation and pastes it into the html export, while for odt it produces strings of the form { | Herzig, 2006 | | |zotero://select/items/0_SKDIF737}, which Zotero can understand withthe aid of an RDF/ODF scan plugin. All of this is fine for my current purposes, but I would like to figure out a more flexible and enduring solution, so I'd like to try out org-cite and org-citeproc. But I'm not quite sure what's required, and whether there's support currently for odt and html export. Thanks very much for your help, Matt
