Prevent overwriting of ISBN when downloading metadata
Sometimes when I download metadata for a book, it also grabs an ISBN that's attached to a different edition of the book than I have.
If I'm downloading in bulk, I can use merge to prevent overwriting. But in single-download, the only option is to undo, which also removes the other downloaded identifiers. Any idea what to do? |

Or copy the old ISBN before downloading. That'll work. Thank you.
