  1. ISO TC46 / SC9What is it? What does it do? So what? Brian Green

  2. What is ISO TC 46/SC 9? • ISO is the International Organization for Standardization. • TC 46 is ISO's Technical Committee (TC) for information and documentation standards. • SC 9 is the TC 46 Subcommittee (SC) that develops and maintains ISO standards on the identification and description of information resources.

  3. Who is ISO TC 46/SC 9? • 26 voting member bodies (national standards organizations) • 18 observer members • 19 organizations with liaison status (inc IDF) • Working Groups to develop standards • Registration Authorities to manage them • Secretary: Jane Thacker of Library and Archives Canada • Chairman: Brian Green of EDItEUR

  4. Which standard identifiers? • ISWC, ISMN, ISRC (Music) • ISAN, V-ISAN (Film / audio-visual) • ISBN, ISSN (Text) Coming soon ( at various stages): • ISTC - Text Code • DOI - (If you don’t know by now…) • ISPI? - Party Identifier (personal and corporate name number)

  5. Potentially a great club • Work, expression and manifestation identifiers (most with core metadata sets) in various media • TC46 SC9 has formal liasion status with other ISO committees (e.g. MPEG) but... • …registration authorities and working groups are self contained - any overlap in membership coincidental • Plenary meetings only once every 18 months

  6. The need for interoperability • Increasing demand for multi media • web pages with text, images, music, video • e-learning objects in all media • How will rights information and royalties be managed? • The <indecs> project identified the needs and proposed a solution for interoperability

  7. Our proposal • Workshop meeting of TC46 SC9 identifier registration agencies proposed for autumn • ISBN, ISSN, ISTC, ISWC, ISRC (IFPI), ISAN (CISAC, AGICOA, FIAPF), DOI • How best to web-enable identifiers? • How can identifiers and metadata interoperate? • Could DOI and the iDD provide an answer?
