DOI ISBN problems
I have been having problems adding items published by the Transportation Research Board of the National Academy of Sciences using their ISBNs. I have asked TRB about this and they claim that the ISBNs are legal and properly registered. But I have just encountered the same problem again. The ISBN in question is here is 9780309160834.
I import a lot of references to their work, so working around is a hassle. Information on the item is pasted below. Thank you.

The conference highlighted the latest research on changing demographics that affect transportation planning, programming, and policy making as well as the latest research on crash and injury prevention for different segments of the female population.

noksagtYour question doesn't seem to have anything to do with DOIs, which are a separate way of identifying items. Zotero uses WorldCat to lookup ISBN. You can see, from the "Order URL" that is included in your post, that there is not WorldCat record for that ISBN.

jongiffAs a commenter pointed out, the problem is that the items in question don't have any ISBN in WorldCat, or may have a different ISBN. Apparently whoever catalogs an item first in WorldCat creates the record, and if they don't include the ISBN or make an error, then that's problem. The publisher is now aware of this, and says it will watch WorldCat entries going forward. Thanks for the help.
