Amanda Byrne (byrneafterreading) | 20 comments I need to update some information for this book. It's not linking to the book on any of the vendor sites it's listed on (it's up on Amazon, B&N, Kobo, and iBooks) and it's missing the ISBN and publisher information. I've included the ISBN and publisher name below. Thanks!

ISBN: 9780986099007
Publisher: Radiodemon Publishing

Reminder: We cannot take book data, including B&N ID, from the B&N site. If it is provided by the author, that is fine.

Amanda Byrne (byrneafterreading) | 20 comments Okay, so do I need to do that for it to link directly to the book on the B&N site?

Ah, OK. Didn't think about it for the BN ID, being as we can only obtain that via the B&N site or via the author/publisher!

Every website that has its own unique ID (like Amazon with regards to Kindle/ASIN or B&N with regards to Nook/BN ID) needs to have a book record that reflects this. It means that when a user goes to that book record, they'll be able to use the "buy" links to go directly to that book on the relevant website.
