Description
Hello,
When adding a reference to a section of a book through Zotero, the title of the containing book does not import into the .bib file. For example, this is the bibtex from the entry in my Zotero database:
@incollection{oldmanDigitalResearchLegacy2022,
title = {Digital Research, the Legacy of Form and Structure and the {{ResearchSpace}} System},
booktitle = {Information and Knowledge Organisation in Digital Humanities: {{Global}} Perspectives},
author = {Oldman, Dominic},
editor = {Golub, Koraljka and Liu, Ying-Hsang},
year = {2022},
pages = {131--153},
publisher = {Taylor \& Francis}
}
and this is what appears in references.bib:
@inbook{oldman2022,
title = {Digital research, the legacy of form and structure and the ResearchSpace system},
author = {Oldman, Dominic},
editor = {Golub, Koraljka and Liu, Ying-Hsang},
year = {2022},
date = {2022},
publisher = {Taylor & Francis},
pages = {131--153}
}
So it seems to recognize that this is a book section, but the booktitle field is missing.

Research direction
Reproduce the Zotero import using the shown @incollection entry and inspect the generated references.bib output. Trace the import handling for the book section and compare the source booktitle with the emitted entry. Done means the generated entry preserves the containing book title while retaining the existing fields.
