Research direction

Start by reading the referenced .github/workflows/fetch_zotero.yml example and comparing it with this repository's site build process. Determine where the generated publication lists should appear and how Zotero updates would be triggered. Done means the publication list is generated reliably from the shared library during builds or on the chosen schedule.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

This is a proposal to use a Zotero shared library to keep a list of publications that are relevant for Cyclus and then use that to automatically generate publication lists on each build of the site and/or a regular schedule. Once this works, new publications can be added simply by adding entries to the Zotero database, which can be as simple as clicking a button on the browser.

I've done this for CNERG: https://github.com/cnerg/cnerg.github.com/blob/main/.github/workflows/fetch_zotero.yml
