Automatically retrieve google books Bibtex citation matching ISBN

Question

I would like to retrieve automatically, and reliably, the bibtex file which I can manually download at google books, for a book identified by its ISBN. The purpose is to create

Answer 1

You can take a look at this project https://github.com/xlcnd/isbntools.

The command isbn_meta 978... retrieves the metadata for the book, however not in bibtex format (but it is easy to use the output and transform it to bibtex).

Anyway in the next major release I am planning (yes I am the creator and maintainer of the project) to add more format options to the output, including bibtex.
