Here are the ones I've found thus far in my 30 minutes of testing: -First, **New lines** matter, although order doesn't! The `original-date:` string needs to be on a new line in the Extra field, but it doesn't need to be on the first, last, or other line in that field. This means that you can include other information in that field, you just have to make sure that `original-date:` is on its own separate line. +First, **New lines** matter, although the order of lines does not!

This means that you can include other information in that field, you just have to make sure that `original-date:` is on its own separate line. I also have been putting the DOI of each publication in the Extra field, where relevant. -Second, Not all **source formats** will be output. At least as I'm testing this as of 2023-12-06, in MLA 9th edition, the `original-date:` field will be output for books and web pages, but will not be output for articles. It's certainly not usual for articles to be anthologized or reprinted—just think of the publication history of Donna Haraway's ["A Cyborg Manifesto"](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Cyborg_Manifesto)—but that information doesn't seem to currently be included in the standard CSL file MLA 9th edition. If you really want to include it, you might try editing your own CSL file… or maybe it would be worth filing an issue at the [Citation Style Language official repository](https://github.com/citation-style-language/styles). +Second, **source formats** matter.

I've been doing this even more manually by adding BibLaTex-structured sections to my reading notes, so having learned this trick will make things far simpler, at least for me! Hopefully it'll be useful for you as well. \ No newline at end of file +Okay! I'm off to add original dates to a **ton** of my Zotero entries!
