Actually, Kellie, sometimes books do have have two
ISBN numbers, but it indicates in small print what
they are. For example, My Friend Rabbit included the
ISBN number for the library binding and the one for
the trade edition. The book looked to me as if it were
the traded edition, even though it was in the library,
so that is the one I put in the ISBN space when I
submitted it. Since both were in  on the copyright
page, though I left them there.

I've seen ISBN numbers for pbk edition and trade
edition in the same book, also. There could be more,
too, I suppose if the publisher wanted to inlcude the
one for LP edition if there were one.

Robert,
I've never seen more than one ISBN number in the
same book. If there is more
than one edition of the book each edition will have
its own ISBn, but that
doesn't matter. Just use the one in the book you
have. If there are other
numbers they're probably Library of Congress catalog
numbers etc. And if you
find a book that's weird and confusing and appears
to have ISBns, you don't
actually have to enter one at all, they're optional
for Bookshare
submission.
