Is it possible that Serials Solutions somehow miscoded that 022|y for your bib record? Their knowledge base is not recognizing 1534-8431 for Technical Communications Quarterly. Can your profile for your Serials Solutions MARC records be tweaked to exclude 022|y values? One of the customization options is to have Serials Solutions strip the 022 out and replace it with their own version. Their version lists the e-ISSN in the subfield a and the print ISSN in the subfield y. Perhaps it is just a matter of Serials Solutions fixing the 022 they are using for that record?

I can't speak for how SerialsSolutions handles the data, but I wonder if they don't have the correct ISSN on their record.
