== Overview == A separate ISBN is assigned to each edition and variation (except reprintings) of a publication. For example, an ebook, [[audiobook]], paperback, and hardcover edition of the same book must each have a different ISBN assigned to it.<ref name="7th edition Users' Manual" />{{rp|12}} The ISBN is thirteen digits long if assigned on or after 1 January 2007, and ten digits long if assigned before 2007.{{efn|name=conversion}}<ref name="LAC FAQ" /> An International Standard Book Number consists of four parts (if it is a 10-digit ISBN) or five parts (for a 13-digit ISBN). Section 5 of the International ISBN Agency's official user manual<ref name="7th edition Users' Manual" />{{rp|11}} describes the structure of the 13-digit ISBN, as follows: [[File:ISBN Details.svg|thumb|The parts of a 10-digit ISBN and the corresponding EAN‑13 and barcode. Note the different check digits in each. The part of the EAN‑13 labeled "EAN" is the [[Bookland]] country code.]] # for a 13-digit ISBN, a prefix element – a ''[[GS1]] prefix'': so far 978 or 979 have been made available by GS1, # the ''registration group element'' (language-sharing country group, individual country or territory),{{efn|Some books have several codes in the first block: e.g. A. M. Yaglom's ''Correlation Theory...'', published by [[Springer Verlag]], has two ISBNs, {{ISBNT|0-387-96331-6|3-540-96331-6|leadout=and}}. Though Springer's 387 and 540 codes are different for English (0) and German (3); the same item number 96331 produces the same check digit for both (6). Springer uses 431 as the publisher code for Japanese (4), and 4-431-96331-? also has a check digit of 6. Other Springer books in English have publisher code 817, and 0-817-96331-? would also have a check digit of 6. This suggests that special considerations were made for assigning Springer's publisher codes, as random assignments of different publisher codes would not be expected to lead by coincidence to the same check digit every time for the same item number. Finding publisher codes for English and German, say, with this effect would amount to solving a linear equation in modular arithmetic.{{Original research inline|This note may contain original research|date=May 2019}}}} # the ''registrant'' element, # the ''publication element'', and # a ''[[checksum]] character'' or [[check digit]]. A 13-digit ISBN can be separated into its parts (''prefix element'', ''registration group'', ''registrant'', ''publication'' and ''check digit''), and when this is done it is customary to separate the parts with [[hyphen]]s or spaces. Separating the parts (''registration group'', ''registrant'', ''publication'' and ''check digit'') of a 10-digit ISBN is also done with either hyphens or spaces. Figuring out how to correctly separate a given ISBN is complicated, because most of the parts do not use a fixed number of digits.{{efn|The International ISBN Agency's ''ISBN User's Manual'' says: "The ten-digit number is divided into four parts of variable length, which must be separated clearly, by hyphens or spaces", although omission of separators is permitted for internal data processing. If present, hyphens must be correctly placed.<ref name="range_file_generation">{{cite web|url=https://www.isbn-international.org/range_file_generation|title=ISBN Ranges|year=2014|publisher=International ISBN Agency|access-date=29 April 2014|archive-date=29 April 2014|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140429101326/https://www.isbn-international.org/range_file_generation|url-status=live}}</ref> The actual definition for hyphenation contains more than 220 different registration group elements with each one broken down into a few to several ranges for the length of the registrant element (more than 1,000 total). The document defining the ranges, listed by agency, is 29 pages.}} Online tools such the ISBN Converter provided by the [[Library of Congress]] can assist with hyphenation.<ref>{{Cite web |title=ISBN Converter |url=https://www.loc.gov/programs/preassigned-control-number/isbn-converter/ |access-date=2025-04-14 |website=[[Library of Congress]]}}</ref> ===Issuing process <span class="anchor" id="How ISBNs are issued"></span>=== ISBN issuance is country-specific, in that ISBNs are issued by the ISBN registration agency that is responsible for that country or territory regardless of the publication language. The ranges of ISBNs assigned to any particular country are based on the publishing profile of the country concerned, and so the ranges will vary depending on the number of books and the number, type, and size of publishers that are active. Some ISBN registration agencies are based in national libraries or within ministries of culture and thus may receive direct funding from the government to support their services. In other cases, the ISBN registration service is provided by organisations such as bibliographic data providers that are not government funded.<ref>{{Cite web|title = ISBN Canada|url = http://www.bac-lac.gc.ca/eng/services/isbn-canada/Pages/isbn-canada.aspx |date = 17 April 2013|access-date = 19 January 2016|publisher = [[Library and Archives Canada|LAC]]|archive-date = 21 April 2020|archive-url = https://web.archive.org/web/20200421235618/https://www.bac-lac.gc.ca/eng/services/isbn-canada/Pages/isbn-canada.aspx|url-status = dead }}</ref> A full directory of ISBN agencies is available on the International ISBN Agency website.<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.isbn-international.org/agencies|title=Find an agency |website=International ISBN Agency |access-date=6 April 2018|archive-date=20 April 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200420020626/https://www.isbn-international.org/agencies|url-status=live}}</ref> A list for a few countries is given below: * Australia – Thorpe-Bowker<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.myidentifiers.com.au/isbn/US_isbn_agency|title=About the Australian ISBN Agency |publisher=[[R.

Publishers receive blocks of ISBNs, with larger blocks allotted to publishers expecting to need them; a small publisher may receive ISBNs of one or more digits for the registration group identifier, several digits for the registrant, and a single digit for the publication element. Once that block of ISBNs is used, the publisher may receive another block of ISBNs, with a different registrant element. Consequently, a publisher may have different allotted registrant elements. There also may be more than one registration group identifier used in a country. This might occur once all the registrant elements from a particular registration group have been allocated to publishers. By using variable block lengths, registration agencies are able to customise the allocations of ISBNs that they make to publishers. For example, a large publisher may be given a block of ISBNs where fewer digits are allocated for the registrant element and many digits are allocated for the publication element; likewise, countries publishing many titles have few allocated digits for the registration group identifier and many for the registrant and publication elements.<ref>{{Cite book|last=Splane|first=Lily|url=https://www.worldcat.org/oclc/54527545|title=The book book : a complete guide to creating a book on your computer|date=2002|publisher=Anaphase II|isbn=0-945962-14-2|edition=2nd|location=San Diego, Calif.|oclc=54527545}}</ref> Here are some sample ISBN-10 codes, illustrating block length variations. {| class="wikitable" style="width:100%; max-width:40em;" |- !
