In 1998, author and publisher Kim D. Blagg (USA) received the world’s first ever ISBN for an ebook, which she distributed through her company Books OnScreen. (An ISBN, or International Standard Book Number, is a numerical code assigned to each commercially published book and is unique both to that edition and its publisher.)
