I get the message to which LadyKate is referring when I add a single book via drag/drop into book list or via Windows Send To into some of my libraries.

Example : I get it in my journals library because of the way I use Title and Author - Author is journal/periodical name, Title is issue identifier (most often its YYYY-MM). Providing the author (journal name) I'm adding isn't in the list in the Duplicate Found dialogue box, then in this context it doesn't bother me, I just hit enter to accept the duplicate.

See attachments for a) the message box to which LadyKate is referring, and b) the Add Books settings I use when adding journals issues.

I'm using 1.22.1 and its not modified

If I'm adding many books then I add them into a separate staging post library with different Add Books settings and usually via one of the Add books via directories, ... methods. Then I do any necessary corrections to fix title and author. Then I resolve duplicates via the Find Duplicates PI - both within the staging post library and between it and the target library, then I move groups of books into target library - but I don't do many bulk additions these days.
