Missing fields to match

I'm having trouble getting fields to match on an import and I'm hoping someone can help me figure out what I'm doing wrong.

Background: I'm trying to import a large number of "empty" books using data from Goodreads (ultimately to shift whole catalog management from GR to Calibre). I've created an empty library to use as a test with the same columns I have in my real library. I exported my GR data and extracted about 200 lines to test with. Saved as a csv file.

When I try to match the fields I'm not getting an option to match the ISBN field. I've tried re-naming the column in my csv file to "ID:ISBN" which is what I understand the field should be, but it's still not showing up.

(My library column layout does have an ISBN column, but since this is a column from another column, I understand that this is not the field to match to.)

I'm sure I've missed a step somewhere, but I can't figure out where!
