Verify all ISBNs in the record, either from the item itself, from ''Books in Print'', or from some other source. Delete or move to {{subfield|z}} any ISBNs in the record that are not valid for versions of that item.
 
In general, the first ISBN that has a match in the [http://proquest.syndetics.com/Marketing/Detail/Faqs Syndetics] database will control which cover, summary, reviews, etc. display in the OPAC.
 
Add the current ISBN to serial records that are intended to be kept for a finite period, or those for which a new edition replaces a previous edition. Do not do this for long-running serial titles that are intended to be kept forever, such as ''Contemporary Authors''.
 
==ISBN qualifiers==
==ISBN qualifiers==
For sets and kits, all ISBNs should be qualified with "(set)," "(kit)", "(book)", "(CD)", "(v. 1)" or other such designation of a particular part in $q.  A set or kit ISBN, when present, should always be the first ISBN for a set or kit record.  An ISBN for a specific volume, when present, should always be the first ISBN when each volume is cataloged on a separate record.
For a multipart item, enter both the ISBNs for the set and the individual parts when available. Enter the number for the set first.
Qualify all ISBNs with (set), (kit), (book), (CD), (v. 1) etc. in ‡q.


When adding an ISBN to a record for a book with only ''minor'' differences from the record, code the book’s ISBN in 020 $a, and add a parenthetical qualifier to the ISBN in $q.  If the publisher is different, include the publisher in the qualifier. Separate multiple elements in the qualifier with space colon space.  Spell out qualifiers in RDA-format records. Examples include (but are not limited to):
For items with only minor differences from the bibliographical record, add the ISBN with a qualifier for publisher or binding in ‡q.  Qualifiers may be abbreviated or spelled out.  Examples include (but are not limited to):

See [http://www.oclc.org/bibformats/en/0xx/020.html OCLC Bibliographic Formats and Standards: 020] for more examples.  


The exact wording of a qualifier is left to cataloger's judgment, except for the rules regarding Turtlebacks, spelling out terms under RDA, and punctuation.
==Price==
Do not routinely enter price information in 020‡c per [https://www.oclc.org/bibformats/en/0xx/020.html OCLC Bibliographic Formats and Standards: 020].  If found, it may be retained or deleted.


Optionally, include a 500 note or add to an existing similar 500 note describing this facet of the publication history and the added ISBN. For example "Also published in paperback by Scholastic with ISBN: …"
In the CCS database, prices may be added in 020&Dagger;c when adding price information in the item record is not feasible, as for the components of a multi-format kit.<ref name="catmin201610">Catalogers, October 6, 2016</ref>


The MARC format was updated in 2014 so that this information is to be coded in 020 &Dagger;q. Locally, please use a single &Dagger;q for all qualifiers rather than a separate &Dagger;q for each part of a qualifier.  Always use proper ISBD punctuation for these qualifiers, even when it is not present in a WorldCat master record.

Please use 13-digit ISBNs for searching, inputting and [[:Category:Preliminary data records|preliminary data records]] unless a 10-digit ISBN is the only one available.

For items published after 2010, if a 10-digit ISBN is present on a record that also has the equivalent 13-digit ISBN, it can be left on the record.  If a 10-digit ISBN is not present, one does not have to be added.

(If the 13-digit ISBN starts with "979", then there is no 10-digit equivalent, so there is nothing to add.)

==Reused ISBNs==
==Reused ISBNs==
In general, the same ISBN should never be found in 020 &Dagger;a of two records in our database. When a publisher reuses an ISBN on an item that requires a separate record (whether because it is completely different and was accidentally reused, or because it underwent a ''major'' change such as a change in title but the publisher intentionally continued using the same ISBN for later printings), the ISBN for the item published later should be in 020 &Dagger;z.
If a book is published both separately and as part of a set or kit, the book ISBN can be in 020&Dagger;a of both records, because both truly refer to that specific edition.  
 
If, due to previous cataloging practices or a cataloging mistake, the same ISBN is already found in an 020&Dagger;a of an existing record, then check whether that ISBN legitimately applies to that record. If the ISBN does not legitimately apply to that record (for example, an ISBN for a "2nd ed." in a record that says "1st ed.") remove it from that record.

==Deleting ISBNs==
==Deleting ISBNs==
You do not have to delete ISBNs for which CCS has no holdings, but you are encouraged to do so, especially in cases where each volume is intended to replace the previous one, as then there is very little likelihood that anyone in CCS will ever order that version or volume or receive it as a donation.
Delete ISBNs for formats that are not represented by the record, such as:
*            E-book ISBN on a print version record
*            Print version ISBN on an e-book record
*            Large print ISBN on a regular print record
*            Regular print ISBN on a large print record


Always delete ISBNs that refer to other formats that aren't otherwise part of the record in hand, such as:
Retain ISBNs for formats that are represented by the record, such as:
* E-book ISBNs on the record for the print version
*             Book ISBN on a book + CD kit record
* Print version ISBNs on e-book records
*             Combo-pack ISBN on a DVD-only record
* Large print ISBNs on regular print records
* Regular print ISBNs on large print records.


However, ''retain'' ISBNs that refer to formats that are included in the record in hand, such as the ISBN for the book of a book + CD kit or for other versions that do not warrant a separate record according to our [[:Category:When to create a new record|rules for when to create a new record]].
''Optionally'', delete ISBNs on serial records for which CCS libraries have no holdings.

ISBN qualifiers

For a multipart item, enter both the ISBNs for the set and the individual parts when available. Enter the number for the set first. Qualify all ISBNs with (set), (kit), (book), (CD), (v. 1) etc. in ‡q.

For items with only minor differences from the bibliographical record, add the ISBN with a qualifier for publisher or binding in ‡q. Qualifiers may be abbreviated or spelled out. Examples include (but are not limited to):

(pbk.)
(paperback)
(lib. bdg.)
(Econo-Clad)
(Turtleback) [Note: do NOT use (tbk.) for Turtleback bindings]
(pbk. ; Scholastic)
(v. 3 ; Sagebrush)

See OCLC Bibliographic Formats and Standards: 020 for more examples.

Price

Do not routinely enter price information in 020‡c per OCLC Bibliographic Formats and Standards: 020. If found, it may be retained or deleted.

In the CCS database, prices may be added in 020‡c when adding price information in the item record is not feasible, as for the components of a multi-format kit.[1]

Order of ISBNs for volumes/editions

Reused ISBNs

If a book is published both separately and as part of a set or kit, the book ISBN can be in 020‡a of both records, because both truly refer to that specific edition. If, due to previous cataloging practices or a cataloging mistake, the same ISBN is already found in an 020‡a of an existing record, then check whether that ISBN legitimately applies to that record. If the ISBN does not legitimately apply to that record (for example, an ISBN for a "2nd ed." in a record that says "1st ed.") remove it from that record.

Deleting ISBNs

Delete ISBNs for formats that are not represented by the record, such as:

  • E-book ISBN on a print version record
  • Print version ISBN on an e-book record
  • Large print ISBN on a regular print record
  • Regular print ISBN on a large print record

Retain ISBNs for formats that are represented by the record, such as:

  • Book ISBN on a book + CD kit record
  • Combo-pack ISBN on a DVD-only record

Optionally, delete ISBNs on serial records for which CCS libraries have no holdings.
