NISO Webinar
November 2010
ISSN: ISO 3297 standard
•  ISSN: International Standard Serial Number
•  International standard code for the unique
identification of
–  Serials and other continuing resources
–  In a defined medium of publication (paper, electronic,
…)
–  Whatever the medium of publication or production
ISSN
NISO Webinar, November
2010
ISSN assignment policy
•  Distinct ISSN for the distinct media
versions of a resource
–  In most cases: for the print and the electronic
versions
•  Answer the needs of those who are dealing
separately with those distinct objects
•  Those separate versions have something in
common
–  linking field in the record (MARC 21 field 776)
ISSN
NISO Webinar, November 2010

A new ISSN ISO standard
•  Published in September 2007
•  Revision prepared by a Working Group
made of:
–  Publishers (STM, press)
–  Suscription agents, database producers
–  OpenURL, DOI, Crossref
–  Other standards in relation
–  Libraries
ISSN
NISO Webinar, November 2010
Why a revision?
•  Main issue: assignment policy
•  ISSN users study:
–  Users wishing to have the ISSN identifying
separately different versions
•  Focus on product
ISSN
NISO Webinar, November 2010
Why a revision?
–  Other users wishing to have the ISSN
identifying uniquely all versions
•  Focus on content

Solution?
The Linking ISSN
or ISSN-L
•  A new function
•  A new data element
ISSN
NISO Webinar, November 2010
ISSN
NISO Webinar, November 2010
Why?
•  Need to identify products
–  Distinct ISSN for the various versions
–  Same assignment policy
•  Need to identify content
–  New data element: ISSN-L
–  A unique ISSN-L for the various versions
–  Function: collocating the various versions of
the « same » resource

ISSN
NISO Webinar, November 2010
What is an ISSN-L?
•  An existing ISSN
•  Designated among the ISSN assigned to the
various versions of a resource
•  To group those various media versions
What is an ISSN-L?
–  Daily news (print) – ISSN 1234-5678
ISSN-L 1234-5678
–  Daily news (online) – ISSN 2345-6789
ISSN-L 1234-5678
ISSN
NISO Webinar, November 2010
the ISSN-L…
•  links…
•  The various media versions…
•  Of a « same » publication (or « resource »)
•  The ISSN-L is sort of a family name…
ISSN
NISO Webinar, November
2010
ISSN-L is not for big families…
ISSN
NISO Webinar, November 2010
ISSN-L is for small families…
For brothers
and sisters…
ISSN
NISO Webinar, November 2010
ISSN
NISO Webinar, November 2010
Why and when
should the ISSN-L be used?
•  Each time the focus is on the content (not on the
medium or on the product)
–  To retrieve content
–  OpenURL implementations
–  see KBART report: http://www.issn.org/files/issn/actualites/
KBART_Phase_I_Recommended_Practice.pdf
11/10/10

KBART report
•  “The accurate use of the ISSN is critical in ensuring
successful resolution of OpenURL-based links.”
•  “KBART also expects that knowledge base developers be
capable of successfully managing multiple ISSN for a
given title. Most titles that are available both in print and
online have more than one valid ISSN assigned to them.
This is a common occurrence, and a link resolver
knowledge base must be able to manage this successfully.”
ISSN
NISO Webinar, November 2010
Why and when
should the ISSN-L be used?
•  Each time there is a need to group the media
versions
–  Facilitates discovery of and access to the various
versions of a resource
–  e.g. PEPRS
http://edina.ac.uk/projects/peprs_summary.html
ISSN
NISO Webinar, November 2010
PEPRS: Piloting an E-journals
Preservation Registry Service
•  online facility that lets a range of
stakeholders check the archival provision
for e-journals and to identify the gaps in
such provision
•  brings together information about journals
and their preservation situations
ISSN
NISO Webinar, November 2010
PEPRS
•  ISSN is the identifier
–  e-ISSN or p-ISSN?
–  ... ISSN-L!

xISSN Web Service
Karen A. Coombs
Product Manager, OCLC Developer Network
xISSN relates alternate editions of serials,
somewhat like xISBN work-grouping:
•  Alternate formats:
e.g. print/electronic
•  Predecessor, successor
relationships
•  Title merges, splits
•  Peer reviewed status
•  also, returns serials metadata
xISSN
Service Details
•  REST-style Web Services
•  XML, JSON, plaintext, etc.
•  Support JSON call back
•  Free to OCLC cataloging members, low volume (1000/day)
access to everyone else
•  Data mined from Worldcat bibliographic data, updated on a
monthly basis
xISSN Title History Tool Metadata from WorldCat Exposed
•  Journal Title
•  Publisher
•  Raw Coverage
•  ISSNs
•  Format associated with that ISSN
•  Associated OCLC numbers
11/10/10
13
Relationships between ISSNs revealed
•  Get History
•  Preceding Titles and their metadata
•  Succeeding Titles and their metadata
•  Get Editions
•  Other formats of the same journal title
•  Print, Electronic, Microform, Microfiche
Metadata Enhancements
•  Journal Table of Contents feed URL
•  TicTocs project
•  Peer Review status
•  Metadata harvested from journal providers and aggregators
•  ~82% agreement with Ulrich’s
•  ISSNL
•  enables collocation or linking among different media versions
of a continuing resource
•  Harvested from ISSN.org
OpenURL contains a format specific ISSN
The Problem
•  OpenURL sent from an article database contains a format
specific ISSN which is different from the one in the
Knowledge Base of the resolver or library catalog. As a
result, linking fails.
The Solution
•  Use data from xISSN to get alternate ISSN and resend the
OpenURL with this ISSN instead
Peer Reviewed Indicators
The Problem
•  Most library catalog and other user interfaces lack
information about whether or not a journal is peer reviewed
The Solution
•  Use data from xISSN to add peer review information to
appropriate screens
Journal Table of Contents Feed
The Problem
•  Library systems which list journals often lack information
about the latest articles in a journal
The Solution
•  Use xISSN to see if a feed of recent article table of contents
is available. Embed a link to open a dialog with items from
the table of content into the UI.

UKSG TRANSFER 
Code of Practice	

Ed Pentz, Executive Director, CrossRef	

Chair, UKSG Transfer Working Group
11/10/10
15
Avoid this routine….	

• Messages to Lis-e-journals	

Serials Solutions (which we use as our catalogue updating service and
link resolver) is still showing this title as being published by X, meaning
we can't yet direct our users to the correct place for this
title, plus our link resolver can't resolve the links
anymore. Direct publisher links through databases (e.g. via SCOPUS
and Google Scholar) aren't working either. 	

We don't have access to recent volumes either because it does not
seem to be part of the Nesli2 title list. :-( 	

TRANSFER will help publishers, too!	

How common?	

TRANSFER Goals	

•  Ensure that journal content remains easily accessible
by librarians and readers when there is a journal
transfer	

•  Ensure that the transfer process occurs with
minimum disruption	

•  Establish explicit obligations for Transferring
Publishers and Receiving Publishers	

•  Establish best practice to help publishers be more
efficient	

•  Get publishers, librarians, agents and others to work
together better	

How to define success?	

• TRANSFER has been a great example of
publishers, intermediaries and librarians
working together	

• TRANSFER needs industry buy-in in order to
be successful – primarily publisher buy-in	

• Libraries need to support TRANSFER and
educate publishers about their concerns	

• The Code must be strong enough to protect
the library customers and their end-users...	

Transfer Working Group	

•  Elsevier, Springer, SAGE Publications, Oxford
University Press, Nature Publishing Group, John
Wiley  Sons	

•  Kingston University, Georgia Institute of Technology,
University of Newcastle upon Tyne, University of
Hertfordshire 	

•  Content Complete, Ringgold, Swets Information
Services 	

•  Association of Learned and Professional Society
Publishers, CrossRef

Balance	

 Publisher incentives	

publisher
Code of Practice V 2.0	

• Antitrust review	

• Best practices that don’t replace contracts
(encourages code-compliant contracts)	

• Process: open, consensus-driven, fair 	

Transferring Publisher Obligations	

• Perpetual access rights: ensure continued access
where rights have been granted. TP can do this
or obligation goes to RP.	

• Access during transfer: if there are problems TP
keep content online up to six months if
Receiving Publisher isn’t ready.	

Transferring Publisher	

• Digital content files: make available within 4
weeks of signature of contract or 4 months
before Effective Transfer Date, whichever is
later	

• Subscription lists: same timing as above. Details
of subscription data to be made available
(consortia subscribers with perpetual access,
lapsed subscribers)	

Transferring Publisher	

• Journal URLs – redirects for 12 months or a
URL to Receiving Publisher	

• Communication – as soon as possible after
contract or no less than 2 months before
Effective Transfer Date	

• DOI Name Ownership – must follow CrossRef
procedures
11/10/10
17
Receiving Publisher	

• Perpetual access rights: will honor rights
granted by Transferring Publisher	

• Access during transfer: provide access from
Effective Transfer Date but must permit
Transferring Publisher to keep content online if
not ready	

• Archiving services: content must remain in
archives; encouraged to continue existing
arrangements	

Receiving Publisher	

• Communication – as soon as possible after
contract or no less than 2 months before
Effective Transfer Date	

• Subscription lists – will contact all existing
subscribers when lists come from Transferring
Publisher	

• DOI Name Ownership – must follow CrossRef
procedures	

Supplementary Information	

• Definitions of terms	

• More information on each section of the Code	

• Publisher Information Exchange	

• Detailed set of data elements publishers could
exchange – checklist	

• Bibliographic, format, location, subscription	

• Communication spreadsheet and data list	

Current Status	

• Code 2.0 released end of 2008	

• 34 publishers signed up – including Elsevier, Nature,
OUP, Sage, Springer, TF, Wiley-Blackwell	

• ~10,000 journals covered	

• Impact with publishers behind the scenes 	

	

• Libraries need to educate publishers on the
issues	

Transfer Alerting Service	

• Central location for publishers to register basic
data about a transfer as soon as contracts are
signed	

• Minimal data, available to all	

• Available via email and blog -
http://www.uksg.org/transfer/notifications	

• Hundreds of Transfers announced – big jump
from September 2010	

Future Plans	

• Working Group: ongoing oversight; dispute
resolution	

• Promotion of Code	

• Consider future revisions to the Code
11/10/10
18
Going forward	

• Collaborative, rather than punitive, approach is
best…unless it doesn’t work	

• Keep focus on benefits to readers of online
journals and customers	

• Learn from COUNTER – steady progress with
lots of consultation; moved from informal to
more formal	

• Traditional publisher and library roles are under
threat…	

Thank you

As a result, linking fails. The Solution •  Use data from xISSN to get alternate ISSN and resend the OpenURL with this ISSN instead Peer Reviewed Indicators The Problem •  Most library catalog and other user interfaces lack information about whether or not a journal is peer reviewed The Solution •  Use data from xISSN to add peer review information to appropriate screens Journal Table of Contents Feed The Problem •  Library systems which list journals often lack information about the latest articles in a journal The Solution •  Use xISSN to see if a feed of recent article table of contents is available. Embed a link to open a dialog with items from the table of content into the UI.

  • 15. 11/10/10 15 Avoid this routine…. • Messages to Lis-e-journals Serials Solutions (which we use as our catalogue updating service and link resolver) is still showing this title as being published by X, meaning we can't yet direct our users to the correct place for this title, plus our link resolver can't resolve the links anymore. Direct publisher links through databases (e.g. via SCOPUS and Google Scholar) aren't working either. We don't have access to recent volumes either because it does not seem to be part of the Nesli2 title list. :-( TRANSFER will help publishers, too! How common? TRANSFER Goals •  Ensure that journal content remains easily accessible by librarians and readers when there is a journal transfer •  Ensure that the transfer process occurs with minimum disruption •  Establish explicit obligations for Transferring Publishers and Receiving Publishers •  Establish best practice to help publishers be more efficient •  Get publishers, librarians, agents and others to work together better How to define success? • TRANSFER has been a great example of publishers, intermediaries and librarians working together • TRANSFER needs industry buy-in in order to be successful – primarily publisher buy-in • Libraries need to support TRANSFER and educate publishers about their concerns • The Code must be strong enough to protect the library customers and their end-users... Transfer Working Group •  Elsevier, Springer, SAGE Publications, Oxford University Press, Nature Publishing Group, John Wiley Sons •  Kingston University, Georgia Institute of Technology, University of Newcastle upon Tyne, University of Hertfordshire •  Content Complete, Ringgold, Swets Information Services •  Association of Learned and Professional Society Publishers, CrossRef
