:::Hi Yworo. Actually we have an especial case here. Without doubt was necessary to include the publishers and ISBNs in that list of works for helping to prove the relevance of the author (for clarifying a point to uninformed people). However, that is a list of literary works not is a bibliography. You know, bibliography is a list of source materials used in the preparation of a scholarly article; i.e., references (bibliography) are used for justifying assertions in the body text. Therefore in theory ISBNs usually are not showed in a historic list of personal accomplishments by author unless you really want to supply maxim information as much possible to the reader (but rarely a reader cares about ISBNs). Besides, according to Manual of Style (footnotes) when you want to supplement information (for instance more details just like those) you do exactly what was done: you create a dedicated section for those notes (named “Notes” and separated from references section, because they are not references). But sometimes some articles just consider references and notes being the same thing (but rigorously that not is correct, they are in fact distinct things). By the way, the abbreviation used (n.b.) meant exactly that: take notice (nota bene in Latin).
