ISBN lookup not working for book in WorldCat

    I can't seem to get the ISBN lookup to work. I went to the Worldcat site and was able to find my book (978-1-59339-221-5) and I am able to download the book and copy it into Zotero as a PDF from the Internet Library, but I can't get the metadata using the "enter a new item from ISBN" feature in Zotero. Any thoughts?

    WorldCat ISBN lookup is just broken at the moment due to changes they made this past week.

    We're working on it, but in the meantime you can just save from the WorldCat site using the Zotero Connector, as you would on any other page.

    @mikelisamike: WorldCat ISBN lookup should be fixed now.
