Scott Chua (scottleechua) | 2 comments Hello! I manually added my book years ago, and recently discovered that I mistyped the ISBN (I took the wrong subset of digits from the ISBN-13).

Please help me update the ISBN from 9782614041 (incorrect) to 6214041824 (correct) -- it's much appreciated!! :)

Thanks very much,
Scott C

You'll need to contact support.

That is not a correct isbn10.
Isbn10 and isbn13 usually have a different last digit. That last digit is a check digit that is calculated. The matching isbn10 for isbn13 9786214041824 is 621404182X.

To get the correct matching isbn, you can use a isbn converter, like this one: https://www.loc.gov/publish/pcn/isbnc...
