Andy Weissberg from Bowker on ISBNs, ISTCs and the Future of the Book
Hello SPANnet members.
Recently I ran an interview with Andy Weissberg of Bowker on my blog. Andy discussed a lot of issues that are critical to self-publishers and indie publishers alike.
We talked about the guidelines for assigning ISBN to ebooks, for instance, the reason Bowker charges $125 for a single ISBN, progress toward the new identifier ISTC and a lot of other topics.
Although it's a bit long to post here on SPANnet, I thought others might benefit from the information Andy shared. Here's a link to the blog post for those interested:

Enjoy!
