It's a little tricky. As far as I can tell, if you do an isbn13 lookup on 
amazon, the search result is correct but contains the isbn10 value. So 
Tellico would need to special-case the isbn field and overwrite the amazon 
search result. I'm not sure I want to do that.

If you enter an isbn13, it should be saved as an isbn13. If that's not the 
case, tell me the specific version of Tellico and the specific isbn value 
that is not working for you.

Thanks!
