14、O member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, gove
15、rnmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC
16、Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member
17、 bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 8459 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 46, Information and docum
18、entation, Subcommittee SC 4, Technical Interoperability. This first edition cancels and replaces ISO 8459-1, ISO 8459-2, ISO 8459-3, ISO 8459-4 and ISO 8459-5, which have been technically revised. It contains the data elements still in force today and incorporates a number of new ones linked to new
19、types of resources into a single document. It is presented in two basic parts: a) a data element directory (Clause 3) where the different data elements are regrouped in different columns, specifying for each of them its rank (a sequence number is allocated to each element), class, entry, definition,
20、 examples and synonyms when existent; b) an alphabetical sequence (Clause 4) which lists for each element its entry, equivalence, name, class and sub-class. BS ISO 8459:2009 ISO 8459:2009(E) ISO 2009 All rights reserved v Introduction This International Standard specifies and describes data elements
21、 required in the interchange of data between bibliographic systems (i.e. terminal or browser to computer or computer to computer). Data are interchanged for the purpose of starting or supporting a process. In order to transmit information required to support a process, the various elements of data i
22、n the interchanged messages must be fully understandable to the processes concerned. This International Standard is seen as serving as a resource tool for interoperability among standards in bibliographic and library domains. It serves to harmonize the various different standards in these domains, c
23、omprising content schemas, protocols, profiles and models. To this end, data elements are defined at various levels because they may be defined at different levels in different protocols and schemas. The focus of the standard is to provide common definitions for data elements that are exchanged in p
24、rotocol messages between systems. System developers typically employ multiple standards and thus can profit from the identified inter- relationships and definitions in their database designs to achieve dynamic inter-operability when employing various standards. This International Standard is also in
25、tended as a foundation for new standards. By inheriting element names and definitions, new standards can be achieved in an efficient way that directly relates them with existing standards in the field. The inclusion of multiple examples and synonyms is also intended to assist in the translation of t
26、he standard into other languages. The elements from the previously published five parts of ISO 8459 have been examined, updated where necessary and consolidated into a single set of elements such that this International Standard replaces these previous parts. There are no referenced documents that a
27、re indispensible for the application of this International Standard. The Bibliography indicates sources consulted and used in the construction of this International Standard. The standards cited in the Bibliography are examples for data elements in this International Standard but are not prescriptiv
28、e. The list also contains reference to the protocol and schema standards that were used to validate the data elements and concepts in this International Standard.

29、liographic data element directory for use in data exchange and enquiry 1 Scope This International Standard describes, in the form of a directory, data elements used to support the processes of acquisition, resource description and cataloguing, searching and requesting loan or copy by an end user or
30、an institution. This International Standard includes data elements that are exchanged or are potentially exchanged among bibliographic systems. Those data elements that are not exchanged or not likely to be exchanged are ignored as they do not need standardization. Data elements being handled by tra
31、nsport protocols are not included, only those related to application level protocols. As part of the consolidation phase, the data elements were broadly classed and sub-classed and are presented in two sequences, one by class and sub-class and the other by an alphabetical sequence. The alphabetical
32、sequence includes examples and synonyms identified during the consolidation phase and those found in related interchange protocols and schemas. As the grouping of data elements may differ among different protocols and record schemas, the data elements have been broadly classed and grouped, but no fu
33、rther structure has been made. Similarly, the sequence of data elements, whether or not a data element is mandatory or how it is structured and validated may vary according to its employment and consequently these data element attributes are outside the scope of this International Standard. As new w
34、ays of inter-operating evolve, some new data elements may evolve, but the biggest change is usually in the way that existing data elements are grouped. For example, whether a purchase transaction is carried out manually or electronically, the base data elements of the transaction, requester, supplie
35、r and object of purchase remain constant, and this is reflected in the fact that most data elements in this International Standard originated several decades ago. To accommodate the potential changing grouping of data elements, an attempt has been made to identify common concepts across processes. F
36、or example, a new focus on end user delivery is causing diverse delivery options to be grouped together such that purchase, loan and inter-library loan processes are presented as alternatives; therefore, the identification of common concepts in all these processes is necessary for the development of
37、 seamless user interfaces. NOTE The French version of this International Standard does not contain the column entitled “Synonyms” in Tables 2 to 12 for the following reasons: a large number of the variant data element names translate to the same data element name in French; a number of the variant d
38、ata element names have been taken from standards which have not been translated into French. The difference between the English and French versions is particularly noticeable in Table 13.
