What is an ISBN number?
An ISBN is an International Standard Book Number. Every book sold anywhere in the world should have a unique ISBN, meaning you can find any book in the world simply with that one number. (Occasionally, ISBNs are reused for books that have long been out of print, but this practice is discouraged.) An ISBN number has ten characters and is assigned by R. R. Bowker in the United States and by a variety of agencies worldwide.
Where do I find a book's ISBN number?
An ISBN can usually be located on the back cover of a book above the bar code. It looks like this (circled in red):
An ISBN can similarly be found on the copyright page (one of the first pages in a book containing library cataloging information):
