here are the basics. You bought them from Bowker so step one is done. - Separate ISBNs by Format: Assign a different ISBN for every distinct edition, such as paperback, hardcover, and audiobook. Librarians rely on exact ISBNs to order and catalog the correct physical or digital media. - Keep Metadata Updated: Register your book's metadata (title, author, page count, publication date, and description) with your ISBN provider. You do this on the myidentifiers website. Libraries pull bibliographic data directly from global databases using these numbers. - Include a PCIP Block: Add a Publisher’s Cataloging in Publication (PCIP) data block on your copyright page. This gives librarians immediate classification data like Dewey Decimal numbers and subject headings, making your book frictionless to shelve. - Print a Clear Barcode on the back of your book: Place a standard 13-digit EAN-13 barcode containing your ISBN on the back cover. This allows library staff to scan the book instantly during intake and inventory.

you can have chatgpt format it for you, but you will need to be specific on your measurements. if you go this route I will tell you what to specify. If you want a designer you might try upwork.com and look for a book designer.

I design books but I am doing 5 right now so I'm booked. You should be able to find someone on upwork to format it. I am happy to guide you if you have questions.

Funny! Thank you!
