Assigning an electronic ISBN in an EU country

ISBN – International Standard Book Number – International Standard Book Number. A universal identification number assigned to a book (brochure) for its international identification.

The purpose of the ISBN is to identify individual books or various non-periodical publications, which is unique for each published book (except for reprints). At the same time, the main advantage of the electronic ISBN is that it does not involve printing and publishing of printed materials with mandatory distribution to libraries in Poland.

– assignment and verification of electronic ISBNs to your scientific works: monographs, manuals, textbooks, books, non-periodical collections of scientific works, brochures, guidelines, etc;

– providing barcode and QR code of the electronic ISBN in Poland;

– assignment and verification in the Ivan Fedorov Book Chamber of Ukraine with mandatory distribution of printed copies of your scientific works.

2. We offer partnership to higher education institutions, scientific institutions in co-organizing international conferences, international scientific symposia, international forums, international round tables with online publication of collections and assignment of electronic ISBNs of the Polish publishing house.
