[Koha] Trying to match and overlay ISBN - (pbk) after ISBN

[Martin McGovern]

Hi,

 

I'm trying to match and overlay a couple of thousand bibs. 

 

I have already loaded approx 9,000 bibs on the koha database. All have ISBNs. But when I try to match and overlay with better records, the incoming records have the same ISBN but with (pbk) appended after the ISBN in the 020 $a - e.g. ­–a190446730X (pbk). 

 

This is valid in Marc21. But koha refuses to match on any of these incoming records.

 

I could strip out the (pbk) but that will not fix the problem for new bibs in the future.

 

Any ideas?

 

 

Thanks,
