Fields

Fields which are read from isis are in format 999x where 999 is three
digit ISIS field and x is isis subfield. There are three special ISIS
fields supported: 10 and 11 (used for ISBN and ISSN, those are only
fields which have just two digits) and MFN which returns ISIS MFN.


Formatting fields

It's done using simple algorithm: it first selects prefix and then
inserts fields (and their separators) or just skips them (so it groups
fields and separator right from it). At end it just appends suffix.
