ISBN Not Working

DiagMan · August 23, 2018

Hello,
The book I want to add to Zotero indicates 2 ISBN,
ISBN-13: 9781515041047
ISBN-10: 1515041042
Neither the first nore the second was recognized by Zotero although the first one matches with the one found in https://www.worldcat.org
Is there anything to fix in Zotero ?
Thanks to contributers
Bertrand

WorldCat doesn't have these ISBNs:

Thank you for checking, dstillman.
I wonder why, then, there is a page referencing this book:
https://www.worldcat.org/title/biomimetisme-management-texte-imprime-lecons-de-la-nature/oclc/1010338093
wich includes:
Type de document: Documents d'archives
Tous les auteurs / collaborateurs: Leprince Jean; Lecoq Michel; Bogatyreva Olga A.; Shillerov Alexandr E.
Numéro OCLC: 1010338093
Note sur la langue: 978-1-51504-104-7
Notes: fre

I agree that the label "Note sur la langue" doens't match with "ISBN" but the reference there is the same.

Error in Woldcat ?..!

yes, definitely a Worldcat error.

DiagMan · August 24, 2018

Thank you, adamsmith !
Now the question is: how tell the error to Worldcat and ask for correction ?
I searched the website in vain (as an identified user)...
Thanks for helping.

I'm afraid I don't know. Open Worldcat isn't a terribly well supported platform.

The ISBN 978-92-2-119217-6 is associated with the wrong/ two document(s).
https://www.worldcat.org/search?qt=worldcat_org_all&q=978-92-2-119217-6
I'm interested in this document but the ISBN always refers me to the other publication.
https://www.worldcat.org/title/health-worker-migration-flows-in-europe-overview-and-case-studies-in-selected-cee-countries-romania-czech-republic-serbia-and-croatia/oclc/75372917&referer=brief_results
Thanks for helping.

There really isn't anything Zotero can do here. ISBNs are supposed to be unique, but somehow these two different items were assigned the same number. I recommend you import the item from the publisher webpage or the WorldCat webpage you linked to.
