Importing via ISBN - two questions
Hi! I'm new to Zotero so apologies if these questions are answered elsewhere but I couldn't find the info.
1. I have started importing some book info via their ISBN numbers. However, the import feature automatically imports the US version of the book's publishing location, when I would prefer the UK version. Is there a way to set it up to retrieve data from a UK database? Lots of academic books are jointly published in the US and UK but have the same ISBN. E.g. books by Routledge, which are published in Abingdon, UK and New York under the same number. I have to use the UK version for my referencing, but currently have to manually change them.
2. When importing books, the titles seem to default to all be in lower case. Is there a way to get them to import in the same way that they were published (e.g. with the nouns all capitalized?) It is quite annoying that the letters are all in lowercase, even for proper nouns.
Hope you can help answer these queries? Thanks!

2. You should store titles in sentence case -- see https://www.zotero.org/support/kb/sentence_casing -- but proper nouns should definitely come in properly cased. Do you have an example (ISBN) where that's not the case
