In case you are citing items that are not found in LexBib and create Zotero items for these, you may want to contribute that metadata to LexBib, so that other people can use that metadata record in the future. We would warmly welcome that. A simple way to contribute your own Zotero items to LexBib is to send us a Zotero export in RIS format (select items, right-click and "export" to RIS format).

A simple way to contribute your own Zotero items to LexBib is to send us a Zotero export in RIS format (select items, right-click and "export" to RIS format; you could also choose bibtex format). If you have a copy of the full text attached to your Zotero item, that can be exported along with the metadata record, chosing the "export files" option in the export dialogue. We would include new metadata and full texts in our [[LexBib bibliodata workflow overview|LexBib workflow]]; we would use the PDF you send strictly for that, and would not make it publicly available (we only would share any download link contained in the Zotero record "URL" field).
