The system is moving to 13 numbers, because of the quantity of books published. They could see that they were going to run out of numbers using the 10 number ISBN. So the old books still can use their 10 digit ISBN, but are also getting a 13 number ISBN. New books will have only the 13 digit number. Patti Stein Librarian Bohannon Middle School San Lorenzo, CA pstein@slzusd.org What I'm reading: Blink by Malcolm Gladwell The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho The Secret Life of Bees by Sue Monk Kidd Date: Tue, 2 Dec 2008 06:49:01 -0800 From: Elizabeth Fox <keokuk@CASCO.NET> Subject: GEN: Book notation questions On the ISBN's on the back of the book, what's the difference between the ISBN-10 and the ISBN-13? One of us says it's the size, the other says it's whether it's a paperback or not...a cup of tea hangs on the bet!
