Look Up tool does not recognize some ISBNs
Zotero is not finding data on the following ISBNs that I copied and pasted into the search field. I was able to find these in WorldCat. Does Zotero search the WorldCat database?
9780787902698
9780976259572
9781137386885
9780957921870

If so, could we get a debug ID for importing from ISBN for one of these

I've seen a couple of other reports of this, so it does look there is an issue affecting multiple users, but none of us is able to replicate this. Do you mind sharing where (in the world) you are? Just in case that affects this.

e.g. 978-0-8010-6627-6
which would import from the LoC
978-0-8010-6627-6
As I say above, yes, Zotero can and does pull from Worldcat where LoC has nothing. All 8 ISBNs you list import fine for me. I don't know why that's not working for you, hence the debug.
We can't see the full content in the debug output, but there's an 'executeRedirectPanel()' function, suggesting that this is some sort of redirect page.Oh, wait, we can. Just a sec.https://forums.zotero.org/discussion/comment/283185/#Comment_283185
@dbilberry, same answer as there, I'm afraid. In this case an example URL would be http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/1001976334?client=worldcat.org-detailed_record&page=endnote.

I am in Virginia Beach, Virginia. I submitted 54 ISBNs and all worked out fine except the ones I listed.

Anyway -- the relevant answer is dstillman's post above -- which university is this? I'm wondering if this may somehow be related to using Worldcat as a discovery layer.
I am on a laptop. I will try the stand alone tool again once I get home and let you know what happens.
http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/1001976334?client=worldcat.org-detailed_record&page=endnote
from the debug?
because that might explain it. That's not working for me either (though it should in theory).
The translator should send to
http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/1001976334?client=worldcat.org-detailed_record&page=endnotealt first and does that for me.
I can replicate the same behavior in the browser: Clicking on
Export to EndNote / Reference Manager doesn't work, but clicking on
Export to EndNote / Reference Manager(non-Latin) (that's the one with the alt in the link) does.
But the "endnote" link works fine for me — I get a RIS entry for that. What are you seeing?
I've tried to reproduce this logged in to Worldcat with an individual account and connected to Worldcat via our proxy for authentication, but ISBN import (and accessing RIS) works fine for both. Regent doesn't use Worldcat as a discovery layer, so that also doesn't appear to be it.
(Due to an issue with the current version of the Zotero Connector, try in another browser without that installed, or temporarily disable the Zotero Connector before trying.)
