This is an add-on for [Zotero](https://www.zotero.org), a research

source management tool. The add-on can auto-fetch citation counts for

journal articles using various APIs, including

[Crossref](https://www.crossref.org), [Inspire

HEP](https://inspirehep.net),

and [Semantic

Scholar](https://www.semanticscholar.org). [Google

Scholar](https://scholar.google.com) is not supported because

automated access is against its terms of service.

Please report any bugs, questions, or feature requests in the Github

repository.

Code for this extension is based on the [Zotero DOI

 Manager](https://github.com/bwiernik/zotero-shortdoi), which is based

 in part on [Zotero Google Scholar

 Citations](https://github.com/beloglazov/zotero-scholar-citations) by

 Anton Beloglazov.

## Plugin Functions

- Get citation counts: Right-click selected Zotero items and select from "Manage Citation Counts" options.

  This will replace stored citation counts (if any) and tag results with the current date.

- Currently, Zotero doesn't have any special field for the number of citations, so they are stored in the "Extra" field.

## Installing

- Download the add-on (the .xpi file) from the latest release: https://github.com/eschnett/zotero-citationcounts/releases

- To download the .xpi file, right click it and select 'Save link as' 

- Run Zotero (version 6.x)

- Go to `Tools -> Add-ons`

- `Install Add-on From File`

- Choose the file `zotero-citationcounts-1.3.0.xpi`

- Restart Zotero
