What is a Market-Restricted Title?

A market-restricted title is a book that is unable to be sold outside of a geographical location. If you find a book that is unavailable for purchase, this may be a market restricted title and there is a possibility it may have an International Student Edition or eBook version.

If you click on the author’s name it will take you to a dedicated page that will show all of their available publications, including any International Student Editions. (See example below)

What is an ISE (International Student Edition)?

An International Student Edition is the version of a market-restricted title that can be sold outside of its restricted geographical location. An International Student Edition has the same content as its restricted counterpart, but the covers will differ.
