Can I choose my own ISBN for my book?

When working with Xlibris Self-Publication, authors have the option to use their own International Standard Book Number (ISBN) if they choose to do so. However, this choice may come with certain conditions. If an author opts to provide their own ISBN, it is important to ensure that it has not been assigned to another publication and meets the necessary requirements. For those who do not have an ISBN, Xlibris offers the option to purchase one through their services. Utilizing an ISBN provided by Xlibris will allow for streamlined processing and distribution through their platforms. It is advisable for authors to carefully review the specific details and guidelines provided by Xlibris regarding ISBN usage. For additional and specific information, visiting the current Xlibris website may be beneficial as it will provide the most accurate and up-to-date resources.
