Olga Silvertongue (olgasilvertongue) | 6723 comments I'm librarian. I'm sorting old classic books (russian).
There are 4 same editions with different ISBN. I checked with the publisher, it's really identical editions (cover, data, format - all identical). They publish this book every two years with different ISBN.
There are 0 shelvings (only first edition has).
I would like to merge them, but it is wrong, yes? Only combine?
It's old book, there are dozens of editions.
