+  A Django project for syncing and displaying Zotero data.
+  The "sync" app synchronizes publication and annotation
+  data from a Zotero library to the Django database
+  (pull/read-only); the "lidiabrowser" app converts LIDIA
+  YAML annotations to Django models and adds a browse/search
+  interface.
