Whats an ISBN?

An International Standard Book Number is a 10-digit or 13-digit number used to give every book its own identification label. You may be unsure of a book’s full title, author, or year published, but if you know its ISBN, you can be sure you’ve got the right book. If you cannot locate your book’s ISBN on the outside of the book, open the front cover and look on the page immediately following the title page. This should be the copyright page and will include information about the copyright date, the author and publisher. The ISBN should be in the middle or at the bottom of that page.

ISBN stands for International Standard Book Number. Every book published after 1968 has this ten- or thirteen-digit identification number. You can find the ISBN on the back cover of the book near the bar code, or on the copyright page of the book.

Defined by ISO 2108, International Standard Book Numbers are a unique identifier assigned to each edition of every published book and book-like product. After January 1, 2007, ISBN’s will be a 13-digit number, as opposed to the older 10-digit format.
