Expand your reach with Lulu's ISBN distribution service
ISBNs
It is now easier than ever to assign an ISBN to your book on Lulu.com! Assign either a Lulu owned ISBN, or bring an ISBN you already own. You can now assign your ISBN to your title at the click of a button from right within our online publishing wizard.
Get a free ISBN from Lulu.com
Assign a free unique ISBN to your title that lists Lulu.com as the publisher. Lulu will act as the publisher on your behalf to retailers and wholesalers globally.
Add an ISBN you already own
Assign an ISBN you already own to your title. The imprint attached to your ISBN will remain the same and Lulu.com will not be listed as the publisher.
yourISBN, be your own publisher
Let us buy an ISBN for you from Bowker, the US ISBN agency. You will be listed as the publisher, not Lulu. Once we have purchased your ISBN, we’ll email it to you so you can assign it to your book in the wizard. *Only available to US residents.
For Lulu to list your title in ISBN databases and with retailers and wholesalers you will need to purchase Lulu's extendedREACH or globalREACH service once you have published your book.
