It seems that there is no central look up system for ISBN or a way to "resolve" ISBNs like one can with DOIs. Some ISBNs can only be found when searching directly in an indexing system like tib.eu or the publishers index. For example although 978-1-4244-5685-7 can be found in TIB KAT and at the publishers website, search engines (e. g. https://www.bookfinder.com/search/?isbn=978-1-424-45685-7&mode=isbn&st=sr&ac=qr) or websites intended to find a ISBN can't find it.

See https://www.doi.org/factsheets/ISBN-A.html for information about differences between ISBN and DOI.

Sticking to using Property:TIBKAT-ISBN might be our best chance to work with ISBNs. Julian Franken (talk) 12:50, 22 April 2021 (CEST)
