An Anonymous Patron writes This Story Says

Amazon.co.uk has teamed up with the British Library so that information on rare, antiquarian and out of print books can be made available to buy online.

The British Library has added details of more than 2.55m books to the Amazon.co.uk books catalogue, with 1.7m of these dated before the 1970 introduction of ISBN.” One hopes the BL was richly remunerated.
