It is important to note that a Bookland EAN barcode is different from a store's Universal Product Code (UPC code). These codes are used by retail outlets that sell products other than books. Generally, only mass market paperbacks will have both a Bookland EAN barcode and an UPC code printed on the back cover. You will need an ISBN number before you can purchase a barcode.
1) Go to the R.R. Bowker website at www.bowker.com.

3) This will take you to the Bowker Barcode Service site. There will be four pages of information to fill out.
4) Select the amount of barcodes you wish to purchase. The pricing structure for bar codes is 1-5 barcodes ($25 per barcode), 6-10 barcodes ($23 per barcode), and 11-20 barcodes ($21 per barcode).
