ISBNs are unique product identifier codes that help distributors, wholesalers, retailers, and readers find your book and contrary to poor advice, yes, independent authors do need them. Understanding how ISBNs work, why they matter, and how to source and use them will help you distribute your self-published books efficiently and professionally.

But there is a lot of misinformation out there.

In this short guide from the AskALLi team of the Alliance of Independent Authors, you’ll learn all the key facts to make informed decisions about ISBNs and be confident when publishing your own books.
