About This Item
TS 2143 is a publishing standard that addresses the ISBN used to identify a book or edition as a distinct item and the place where that number appears on the publication. Its technical concern is the orderly international use of book numbering so that different editions with the same or similar titles can be distinguished more reliably.
The role of ISBN in publishing
An ISBN is a unique identifier for books that supports ordering, cataloguing, distribution, and archival workflows. In general technical terms, identifiers of this kind help separate one edition, volume, or publication format from another, making bibliographic records and commercial data easier to manage consistently.
What this standard covers
This TSE standard specifies the construction of an ISBN and the location of the printed number on the publication. Its focus is therefore on the structure of the numbering scheme and its visible presentation, not on the editorial content of the book or on publication quality in a broader sense. It is recorded as equivalent to ISO 2108:1972.
