Revision as of 14:32, 15 August 2006 by Rich Farmbrough (talk | contribs)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)Bookland is an imaginary place created in the 1980s in order to have an EAN Country Code reserved for books, regardless of country of origin, to accommodate the large number of books published worldwide each year. Bookland's "country code", the beginning of the ISBN, is 978. A book's Bookland EAN is identical to its ISBN-13.
As of January 1 2007, all books will use the 13-digit ISBNs.
