Hi, I regret to agree about the OOo bibliographic features.Zotero is very nice, but getting Zotero IDs into an Org-mode document (see Eric Hetzner's zotero-plain, https://bitbucket.org/egh/zotero-plain) and then into OOo in a form where they'll be useful (no ready solution I know of) is a somewhat complex task. If Bibtex is your starting point and you want to maintain your bibliography in Bibtex (and why wouldn't you, if you can /deliver/ your work as LaTeX/PDF), the round trip will be more complex and fragile yet.
What are your minimal bibliographic requirements for documents to send your supervisor? If you're using author-date citations and a reference list, I might have a crude stopgap.

Hi Matt! 2011/7/7 Matt Price<address@hidden>:The zotero Standalone Alpha has a Chrome extension. I think using Zotero is a much better bet than trying to use the native OOo bibliographic features which were always very primitive, never really expanded as they were supposed to be, and have, I believe, more or less rotted in the last several years. there have been threads on this list about using zotero with org-mode; now that org-odt as been incorporated into the org relase (yay!) maybe someone will figure out how to translate zotero ids into odt documents using the command-line version of OOo or something.I know close to nothing about Zotero except that I have installed the extensions for Firefox and LibreOffice. I am willing to install the standalone Zotero. It has connectors for Chrome and OpenOffice, so that should work. Thanks, Henri-Paul
