Zotero allows the developers of various styles to use things found in the Extra field to handle special circumstances. If you use the Chicago Manual of Style series or the APA style, you can use the Extra field to handle using both the original and reprint dates on a book that is in a new printing.
Put the new date in the regular Date field in your citation record. In the Extra field, on a line by itself, put "original-date: " then the original publication year. (If you put anything after it, on the same line, it will be included in your citation.
