: Re: Why are costs for ISBN less in Australia, until you order 1,000? As I was looking up the Bowker website for when I go to buy ISBNs I found it has separate URLs for The US and for Australia

You can't usually save money by shopping around for ISBNs from different countries, which is a shame because in some countries they're free. For example, both Canada and Sweden have free ISBNs, provided through Library and Archives Canada and National Library of Sweden respectively. In both cases you have to have a publication address in the respective country to qualify for an ISBN.

It would be interesting to know how much it costs the Swedish and Canadian governments to provide their publishers with ISBNs, and how much profit companies like Bowker in the US and Nielsen in the UK make from providing the same service.

: 'PoV' stands for 'Point of View'. It refers to the character through whose eyes a reader views the story. A novel can have multiple PoV characters, or just one. Note that this tag is different
