Re: [BKARTS] ISBN, CIP & bar code

["Jack C. Thompson" <tcl@TELEPORT.COM>]

Amazon.com has made different requests over the past couple of years
all of which seem geared toward costing me money.  That is not why I
am in business. If and when they want books from me they know the way.

Until it is to my advantage to purchase bar codes I will continue to
decline them.  ISBN's are worthwhile as it gets my titles listed in
Books in Print.

This may sound curt, but it is not meant that way.
