   * Zotero is more geared to cataloging individual references (e.g. articles in journals) rather than whole issues; one solution is to catalogue them as "books," with a note indicating what volume/issues are in the library; important individual articles within these periodicals could then be added as separate items
   * I'm using the following format to note the individual issues of periodicals: **''year [volume:issue] additional info''** (additional info can be season/month(s), thematic name of the issue, etc.); using the notes field like this is a bit kludgy, but at least in this format they will sort by date and issue
-  * tags might be a good way to physically locate items on the shelf if there is a [[http://www.controlledvocabulary.com/|controlled vocabulary]] for this purpose, e.g.:
-  - ''fl-books''
-  - ''fl-cards-games''
-  - ''fl-digital-mixed''
-  - ''fl-fiction''
-  - ''fl-oversize''
-  - ''fl-periodicals''
-  - ''fl-periodicals-singleissue''
-  - ''fl-tas-luea''
-  - ''fl-unperiodicals''
-(The motivation for the ''fl-'' prefix is to ensure a set of keywords unique to this library.)
