Describe the solution you'd like Thanks a lot for your work! I love this tool!

I have currently multiple Libraries in Zotero (a research project team + a research chair team + my personal Zotero). I can export all of them using Better BibTeX and keep them up-to-date - however, I would love if I'd be able to bind all three into this plugin. Else I have to either switch, or merge the others into my personal Zotero, which is more resiliant against duplicates, but makes the task a lot more tedious.

To combat the possibility of duplicates, maybe considering adding them by priority (first, second, nth) might be sufficient.

Describe alternatives you've considered Manually adding those I want to write about to my own Zotero library and its hierarchy. As its hierarchy varies from the other libs, it would be nice to find a way to pull multiple into the plugin instead 👍🏽

Additional context

This would be a very valuable addition in functionality, especially for those of us with lots of different research projects and teams, where discreet .bib libraries help keep things separate.
