There's no reason to indirect via a urn: prefix.
isbn:nnnn
is perfectly valid URI syntax[1], provides all the necessary
information,
and has been in use since Nov 1991. I hope the folks that acutally
own and operate the ISBN social process endorse this practice soon
and register isbn: with IANA.
I maintain an informal registry
of URI schemes:
isbn:
Message-Id: <m0khBzh-00081pC@crane.aa.ox.com>
To: www-interest@nxoc01.cern.ch
Subject: references in the web to paper documents.
