Though I can offer no guidance...
Here is one source of information on barcodes for serial publishers along
with ISSN information: the National Serials Data
Program at the Library of Congress (see web page):
http://lcweb.loc.gov/issn/issnhome.html#stand. Look under "Related Web
Resources" for SISAC (barcodes furnished by publishers) material
or contact

COMMITTEE (SISAC)

Telefax: 212.989.7542

For a brief explanation, try
http://www.issn.org/sisac.html
which also has some links to more extensive information.
Good luck.
