The reference will now be imported into your library.

Article references will usually be imported correctly from Oria. References from Books and reports will also usually be correctly imported but should be checked for errors. Usually the text for edition (ed.) (or utgave in Norwegian (utg.)) will be imported together with the edition number. This text must be manually removed from the edition fields because the style will usually insert "Ed." or "Utg." in the references list and you will get the text twice if you do not remove it in the reference. Generally, errors or missing data can be corrected manually later.
