Cab,

I cannot help you to solve the ISBN problem, but would be very interested to 
learn how you do the carousel. Could you share? Or give some hints how to make 
it work on my library catalog? Thanks!

Subject: [Koha] Retrieving 10-digit ISBNs in a report

OK, this got no responses on the Koha developers list :-(, so trying here --

For the purposes of creating a web-based carousel of book covers for our recent 
acquisitions, I'd like to run a report that generates a list of ISBNs of items 
added between 2 dates.

Amazon, & therefore Koha, rely on 10-digit ISBNs for book cover retrieval.

However, when I run a report using biblioitems.isbn, this is the output I get. 
Many truncated ISBNs, presumably because of the max length = 30 restriction for 
this particular field.

9780425243244 (pbk.) | 0425243
9780307718099 | 0307718093
0804840288 | 9780804840286 (tr
9780811876377 : | 0811876373 :
1569244677
9781400064588 (acidfree paper)
9780061429255 | 0061429252
9781451661064 (hardcover) | 14

Is there a way to run a report that outputs only the 10 digit ISBNs?

Many thanks,
