I am not a lawyer, but if I remember correctly, copyright covers expression, not content. Since the Wikidata data model and its representation in JSON is rather unique, an ISBN number in a Wikidata statement seems to be novel to Wikidata.
Would rewriting a sentence from a book and then entering that sentence in Wikipedia violate copyright?
We have some documentation on that. :)
