The getpub.cgi application takes an ISBN for an argument, and returns an XML structure containing the metadata for that particular publication. If more than one publication is associated with that particular ISBN, multiple records will be generated. The Records tag indicates the number of records found, followed by some number of Publication records. A license key is not required to use this API. The URL for getpub.cgi should appear as follows: http://www.isfdb.org/cgi-bin/rest/getpub.cgi?0439176832
