ISBN-10 Transitions To ISBN-13
As of January 1, 2007, the ISBN will be redefined in length and construction It will become a 13-digit identifier (ISBN-13) rather
than a 10-digit identifier (ISBN-10)
Initially, ISBN-13 will be identical to today’s Bookland EAN - 9780940016736
As the current supply of numbers is exhausted, some new ISBN-13s will be prefixed with ‘979’ instead of ‘978’

ISBN-13 – Why Is It Happening?
To increase available numbers for books There are many new publishers, especially small
presses, who need ISBNs
Publishing has increased significantly in areas where there was once little activity
To become part of the EAN.UCC global product numbering system for product identification ISBN-13 represents a step in standardization just
as ISBN-10 did 30 years ago

Banking Your ISBN-10s
What about a publisher’s bank of existing ISBN-10s? Assigned to books
Unassigned, but allocated to that publisher
Convert them! Existing ISBNs are not replaced with a new,
different number
They convert to ISBN-13s

11 ACTS – Biloxi - July 25, 2005
Transitioning to the ISBN-13
A phased transition, as compared to an abrupt cutover, is always encouraged
Dual numbering (both numbers) is strongly advocated during the transition wherever ISBNs are displayed for human reading

15 ACTS – Biloxi - July 25, 2005
What is the GTIN?
The Global Trade Item Number (GTIN) is actually a family of identifiers that includes: UPC – Used by general retailing in the US EAN – Used by retailing globally ISBN-13 – Becoming the standard for books
“GTIN Format” means expressing any of these identifiers in fourteen digits by prefixing them with zeros This number is correctly called “EAN/UCC-14” It is widely referred to simply as “The GTIN”
![Page 16: ISBN-13 An Overview. ACTS – Biloxi - July 25, 2005 2 About BISG Industry-wide trade association for policy, standards, and research, composed of: Publishers.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649e625503460f94b5e7a0/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
16 ACTS – Biloxi - July 25, 2005
How Is The GTIN Used?
It is the item identifier for transactions in the global supply chain, such as:
Product Data (Metadata) Receiving
Ordering Invoicing
GTIN is not a product identifier for marking individual items
GTINs appear today on cartons (cases) in general retailing; they are especially noticeable in grocery stores
![Page 17: ISBN-13 An Overview. ACTS – Biloxi - July 25, 2005 2 About BISG Industry-wide trade association for policy, standards, and research, composed of: Publishers.](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062407/56649e625503460f94b5e7a0/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
17 ACTS – Biloxi - July 25, 2005
How Is The GTIN Built?
At the item level, by placing the ISBN-13 (or any other EAN) in a 14-digit field and prefixing with ‘0’
Prefixes ‘1’ – ‘8’ have significance as packaging level indicators

Why The GTIN?
Adopting the 14-digit GTIN standard aligns the book industry with national and global supply chain practices Enables participation in global product data
synchronization (data distribution)
Permits the book supply chain to use package level choice (cartons, stacked on pallets)
The decision to offer package level choice lies with the supplier (publisher)

GTIN – BISG Policies
BISG endorses only a 14-digit field length for electronic communications Communications practices are outward facing –
they affect trading partners
A single standard for electronic communication is essential to minimize confusion and duplicate provisions for electronic communications
BISG recommends a product identifier field of at least 14-digits in all databases If a system is SKU-based, then cross reference
tables and displays (screen and hard copy) should comply

21 ACTS – Biloxi - July 25, 2005
Recommendation – Phase It In
Use dual numbering during the transition, displaying both ISBN-10 and ISBN-13 in wherever the data is human readable
Take things one step at a time
Recognize that there is less urgency in the education sector as compared to trade bookselling
Begin the planning and transition process at an appropriate speed nevertheless
