Librarians everywhere are in a panic in anticipation of January 1, 2007. They only have two years to prepare for the new ISBN format which changes from 10 to 13 digits on 1 January, 2007.

If this concerns you as much as it concerns me you might be asking yourself?

1. How will I order books when I only know the 10-digit ISBN?
2. Will I have to switch to using 13-digit ISBNs for searches in my library database?
3. What are library vendors planning and when will we see changes?
