Usage
Use this as a warning that some or all books cited have no associated ISBNs. Note that this template is not required for inserting an ISBN into an article; the Mediawiki software recognizes ISBNs automatically.

Note that most books published before 1974 do not have ISBNs (though editions published after that date should have).
