I'd not heard of ISBN 979 series.
I thought 979 was the overflow of 978 (my chart of EAN/Bookman codes show these as valid for Point of sale). Have I seen one in the wild (USA)? Nope.
What Wikipedia shows:
Quote:
Within the 979 prefix element, the registration group 0 is reserved for compatibility with International Standard Music Numbers (ISMNs),
It always amazes me on what folk find that they need to highlight in their Library. Different strokes... I would have thought that those (both EAN) would be treated the same, and have highlighted the older ISBN 10,
as always YMMV
