Are you counting 10 digit and 13 digit as 2 different ISBNs?

Thanks,

Corrected figures. The main difference is that the position of single instances and 4 instances switched.

Mea culpa. I discovered that my algorithm for producing the numbers below was fatally flawed. I was only checking for the existence of an 020 field, when in fact I should have been checking for the existence of an 020 $a, since you can have $c "Terms of availability" without a $a. Therefore, the numbers below are over-counting the existence of ISBNs. I will see if I can correct the algorithm and provide more accurate numbers. So sorry for the oversight.

Keep in mind that WorldCat, being the largest library union database in the world, includes a great deal of material that pre-dates the establishment of the ISBN.

In SLC's database of over 300,000 records, over 169,000 have no ISBN, over 114,000 have one, over 19,000 have two, and the number of ISBNs ranges up to 36 in one record.

For us, Instances can't be based on ISBNs.
