NEL (New English Library)

A British publisher that is now an imprint of Hodder Headline

Commonly used ISBN prefixes are:

  • 0-283-9 1976–1982
  • 0-340-6 1994–1999
  • 0-340-7 1999–2004
  • 0-340-8 2004
  • 0-450-0 1969–1997
  • 0-450-3 1986–1993
  • 0-450-4 1987–1990
  • 0-450-5 1989–1994
  • 0-450-6 1994–1995

0-340 overlaps with Hodder; 0-283-9 with Sidgwick & Jackson; 0-450 is a pretty clear indication of being NEL though.

NEL also used Souvenir Press and Four Square imprints, but these are likely to be pre-ISBN.
