ISBN

The International Standard Book Number (ISBN) is a unique numeric commercial book identifier . It is a controlled, 10 or 13 digit identification number that allows publishers, libraries, and book dealers to locate books. It is not necessary to have an ISBN number but if you want to sell your book then having an ISBN means that your book will appear in bibliographic databases that are often referred to by booksellers when they are looking for a particular book.

A different ISBN is allotted to each imprint of the book e.g. a paperback and hardback version of the same book will have different ISBN.

ISBN numbers are provided to publishers. They are free in India. You can use ISBN allotted to us or get one on your own.

If you use an ISBN allotted to us then the publisher of your book is ‘Publish Our Dreams’. We reserve the discretion to allow you to use our ISBN. We’ll approve of the content before we give the ISBN. If tomorrow you decide to get your own ISBN or publish your book through a traditional publisher you’ll have to get a new ISBN.
