NEL (New English Library)

A British publisher that is now an imprint of Hodder Headline

Commonly used ISBN prefixes are:

  • 02839 1976–1982
  • 03406 1994–1999
  • 03407 1999–2004
  • 03408 2004
  • 04500 1969–1997
  • 04503 1986–1993
  • 04504 1987–1990
  • 04505 1989–1994
  • 04506 1994–1995

0340 overlaps with Hodder: 02839 with Sidgwick & Jackson: 0450 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.
