**What's an ISBN?** International Standard Numbers are unique codes used by publishers, libraries and suppliers to identify published monographs, serials and music. ISBNs (**International Standard Book Numbers**) are assigned to books, pamphlets, educational kits, microforms, CD-ROMs and other digital and electronic publications; ISSNs (International Standard Serial Numbers) to serial publications; and ISMNs (International Standard Music Numbers) to printed music publications. The new ISBN system uses 13 numbers, and the old used 10 numbers (from //Library and Archives Canada//).
