biblatex reference format & ISBN number

[TomasAtGenicore]

I noticed the following inconsistency, between @book and @collection, but perhaps it is intentionally.
Entries generated from Zotero.

The following entry generates reference without ISBN number, and OCLC number

@book{schutz_phenomenology_1967,
langid = {english},
location = {{Evanston}},
title = {The Phenomenology of the Social World: {{Transl}}. by {{George Walsh}} and {{Frederick Lehnert}}. {{Original}} Published in 1932},
isbn = {978-0-8101-0390-0},
shorttitle = {The Phenomenology of the Social World},
publisher = {{Northwestern Univ. Press}},
date = {1967},
author = {Schutz, Alfred},
note = {OCLC: 631085675}
}

Are you using BibTeX or biblatex (biber)?

[sieversMartin]

For biblatex the bibliography driver for book indeed differs from the one for collection. It misses:

\iftoggle{bbx:isbn}
    {\printfield{isbn}}
    {}%

as well as

\printfield{note}

@koppor has to answer whether this really is intentional.

Are you using BibTeX or biblatex (biber)?

Yes, I am using biber.

A also noticed that in the instructions for lni MSWord references, ISBN number is not included in any case.

[koppor]

Thank you for looking this up. Nevertheless, I would add both fields in both cases. A bib file has to be modified for publication anyway (refs JabRef/jabref#160). Am Di., 29. Jan. 2019, 15:15 hat TomasAtGenicore <notifications@github.com> geschrieben:

As this is an biblatex-lni feature then, I will close this one here.

Would the following format fit your expectations @TomasAtGenicore?

Kottwitz, S.: LaTeX Cookbook. Quick answers to common problems, Packt
Publishing, 2015, ISBN: 978-1784395148.

Source:

@Book{latexcookbook,
  author    = {Stefan Kottwitz},
  title     = {LaTeX Cookbook},
  year      = {2015},
  isbn      = {978-1784395148},
  publisher = {Packt Publishing},
  note      = {Quick answers to common problems},
}

I am aware that "Quick answers to common problems" is a subtitle and not a real note. I couldn't come up with a better example.

@koppor > Would the following format fit your expectations

Thanks for the reply, not exactly, but I think I understand now.

In the documentation for the lni package, on https://www.ctan.org/pkg/lni, the reference format is not defined, so my assumption was that the biblatex-lni template, would extract exactly the fields required to match the 'lni' publishing requirements. I guess this was the wrong assumption.
"A bib file has to be modified for publication anyway (refs JabRef/jabref#160)"

I also noticed the OCLC and ISBN number inconsistency mentioned in the first message, but according to the "Word" file on https://gi.de/service/publikationen/lni/ never is included in the bibliography, anyway.

Perhaps lni-package documentation should be clarified on reference content and .bib file modification.
