Well, the part of your stylesheet that you shared with us didn't copy the book
element to the result tree. It just appended a NOCODE attribute to what I can
only presume was an element added to the result tree prior to the invocation
of that template.

Perhaps you meant

 <xsl:template match="Book">
   <xsl:copy>
     <xsl:if test="not(@ISBN)">
       <xsl:attribute name="NOCODE">
         <xsl:text>B01</xsl:text>
       </xsl:attribute>
     </xsl:if>
   </xsl:copy>
 </xsl:template>
