International Standard Music Number (ISMN) updated in ISO standard
14.10.2009 The International Standard Music Number (ISMN) which uniquely identifies editions of notated music has been updated in the revised standard ISO 10957:2009. The ISMN has been increased from 10 to 13 digits, thus bringing it into line with the International Standard Book Number (ISBN) which was similarly increased from 1 January 2007 to ensure future capacity.

The ISMN identifies printed and notated music as a distinct category of publication within the global supply chain and for the development of trade directories and similar services to the specialized market for music publications.
