@Philosopher -IIRC someone at MR had their barcode reader write the ISBNs to a text file, then they edited the text file into something that could be used by the Import List PI. I assume the author and title were dummy values, which were overwritten when metadata was downloaded using the ISBN.

Might be in the Import List thread,
