ISBN

navigator, ISBN stands for International Standard Book Number. It's a unique number that is assigned to every book published. Different editions of a book will have different ISBNs. So the paperback and the hardback of a book would be different.

I know that you can find ISBNs for books that are listed on www.amazon.com . I'm sure there are ways to find books that amazon doesn't list, but I'm not familiar with it.

Let us know if you find what you need. Someone else will probably come along with more help if you need it.

I'm looking for these books's ISBN:

1) Practical techniques for language teaching by Michael Lewis and Jimmie Hill

2) Grammar for English Language teachers with exercises and a key by Martin Parrott.

3) How to teach English by Jeremy Harmer.

4) Teaching Methodology
Harmer, J. (1998). The Practice of English Language Teaching (Longman)
OR Ur, P. (1996). A Course in Language Teaching (CUP)
OR Harmer, J. (1998). How to teach English. (Longman)

Grammar Reference
Eastwood, J. (1994). Oxford Guide to English Grammar. (OUP)

Thanks alot mac

Pssst, mac11 - should we mention the ISSN?

Mr. S. - remind me about ISSNs. They're for magazines?

International Serial Standard Number. Consists of two sets of 4 digits separated by a dash. Identifies a serial (ie published at a regular or irregular period and usually intended to be produced indefinately).

However, in the case of a monographic series (one that consists of a series of discrete items) each item may be identified by an ISSN (for the series) and an ISBN (to identify each individual title). Welcome to the numerical hell that IS the life of a library worker specialising in periodicals!!
