ISBN-13 support

    Currently, we are using a custom list to populate our bookshelves. We switched because many of our items have ONLY an ISBN-13 number, but the shelves look for items on Amazon (our image source) under ISBN-10. If we don’t have an ISBN-10 number in the record, or the item doesn’t have one listed, it will not work.
    Is there an update planned to address this, or some way to change settings to use ISBN-13? Curating the lists is fine, but, our patrons like the more dynamic lists we get by having it run a report.

    You may get better results using Baker & Taylor or Syndetics as your image server. Amazon’s image server has very sparse support for ISBN-13.

    Remember to resave your Bookshelves after changing the image server if you are populating them from Koha reports, or any other web service.

    Do I need to change my reports in some way?

    You should not have to change your reports. B&T and Syndetics have good support for ISBN-10 and -13.
