One can also write an XSLT transformation that can be call directly from 
Tellico (export menu). It is a bit harder but very powerfull and what you 
learned will be useful to write custom import tools from XML data (like from 
Amazon).
I wrote a somewhat outdated help about tellico fields on https://
userbase.kde.org/Tellico

However, Bruno's Perl script is very good and useful and can be used  to 
manipulate XML export with a customized XSLT file.
