Sarah M (sarahsomeone) | 85 comments Hi there Librarians - I'm a developer here at Goodreads and was using HP1 as a test book for some development work I'm doing. In the process, I discovered that ISBN only had 9 digits (and thus is invalid). I tried to rectify the situation, but I think I've just made things worse. The ISBN13 doesn't match the publisher or publication date, etc.

Can I get some help cleaning up the data? I'm afraid I've done more harm than good.

Thanks!

Sara ♥ (saranicole) | 316 comments Looks like the ISBN 10 should be 0439554934, but it's taken by another edition of the book... so they need to be combined by a SUPER! (Good catch!)

Sara ♥ (saranicole) | 316 comments NM... I'll go about this a different way... Okay, fixed the ISBN, now I'll post the other edition to get deleted by a super.
