Why am I seeing two ISBN numbers on books? They are designated "10" & "13." I'm assuming this refers to the number of digits in the ISBN but it isn't just a three digit prefix to the existing ISBN, the numbers are different.
Tell me why...

As of Jan. 1, 2007, all the ISBNs (International Standard Book Number) are being switched over to the 13 digit. Just like adding more numbers to a license plate, this conversion is being done to increase the numbers of the ISBN system and try to avoid number shortages in the world.
It's other purpose is to put the numbers on a global EAN.UCC identification system. |

It's REAL purpose is to make more money for Bowkers. They are milking their exclusive United States distribution rights for all they can get. If you want a reasonably priced ISBN, you will have to move to Canada.

On January 1, 2005 the book industry began adopting the use of a 13-digit ISBN. This change aligns the ISBN identifier with other worldwide product numbering systems, helping promote an efficient global supply chain structure.

Are you kidding? We need a 13 digit ISBN about as much as we need a 13 digit Social Security number. The trick to milking the last cent from a service is to charge for expedited attention and periodically "update and improve" the service for an additional fee without really making it any better. NEW AND IMPROVED! Bowkers gives big discounts to large publishing houses while putting the screws to the independents.

The above text in my post was taken directly from Bowker's site.
