10、ndards bodies (ISO 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 or
11、ganizations, governmental 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 give
12、n in the ISO/IEC 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 7
13、5 % of the member 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 9230 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 46, Info
14、rmation and documentation, Subcommittee SC 8, Quality Statistics and performance evaluation. This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 9230:1991), which has been technically revised. BS ISO 9230:2007v Introduction The intention of this International Standard is to provide the i
15、nternational library community with a methodology for establishing national price indexes for the documents they acquire. This second edition has been expanded to cover electronic as well as printed books and serials, and electronic databases. A problem well known to libraries is the difficulty of c
16、ontrolling the amount of funding made available annually for acquisitions. If libraries generally acquired documents, in one physical medium, solely from national sources, and had stable budgets, the problems of budget control for library documents would be simple. This is, however, not the situatio
17、n. Libraries now have to cope with information of a greater variety than before, and from international sources. These developments in the information world are accompanied by general economic developments that seem to create reductions and instability in library budgets. Under such circumstances th
18、e demand for effective library management grows, and with it the demand for tools for library management. Use of price indexes is, of course, only one element in library management practice, but one which is nevertheless necessary for relevant budget control. National price indexes are not only need
19、ed for funding but also for negotiation with vendors and publishers. Price indexes do not relate only to national production, but to materials of both national and international origin used by libraries. It is not intended that price indexes constructed according to this methodology should in any wa
20、y replace general consumer price indexes or specific indexes set up by the trade. However, indexes can normally be regarded as accurate only within a specific environment. The experience that led to the preparation of this International Standard was the difficulty in applying indexes of non-library
21、origin to library management. It is easy to understand the difficulties of reporting prices when one takes into consideration the international background of most library and information work, which can involve many countries and currencies. This International Standard is intended to be, therefore,
22、an accepted tool for library management. It has been necessary to apply certain limitations to this International Standard. Though libraries in most countries still spend the majority of their financial resources on print media (books and journals), there is a growing collection of electronic docume
23、nts that can be more important for use. The priority between these groups can differ from library to library, but they are dealt with together in this International Standard. Increasingly, libraries are acquiring large electronic collections, and one of the key reasons for revision of this Internati
24、onal Standard was to incorporate methodologies appropriate to a range of digital documents. This International Standard therefore covers books and serials in both print and electronic forms, and databases. It was decided to continue to exclude from this International Standard criteria which could be
25、 used for price indexes for other types of physical media. This International Standard does not ignore the need to deal with these other physical media. They have, however, been excluded in order to bring this work to a conclusion. In the future, when more experience is gained, any revision of, or a
26、ddition to, this International Standard could include other physical media. BS ISO 9230:2007 blank1 Information and documentation Determination of price indexes for print and electronic media purchased by libraries 1 Scope This International Standard specifies a method for the determination of price
27、 indexes relating to the prices of print and electronic media acquired by libraries. It is not meant for calculating a price index of the national media production. The media included are restricted to books, serials and databases. NOTE Further details are given in 2.2 and 3.1. It is intended primar
28、ily for use by the library community, although it is accepted that other organizations may also find it useful. It focuses on compiling price indexes on the base of national and international sources, relevant to one country or region and different types of libraries. Different indexes will be appro
29、priate to different types of library, according to the types of material in their collections. This International Standard presents a methodology allowing for a general index which could be calculated from subsets of data, and could be weighted according to local needs. It introduces sampling method
30、s for the selection of materials on which to base calculations. Note that this International Standard describes indexes of prices, not of costs. Local cost indexes can be compiled instead of price indexes where there is insufficient uniformity of pricing structures to permit the calculation of price
31、 indexes, or as an additional tool for libraries. Guidelines for the calculation of local cost indexes are given in Annex B. 2 Terms and definitions For the purpose of this document, the following terms and definitions apply. NOTE The equivalent English or French terms, as appropriate, have been giv
32、en in Annex C. 2.1 access rights rights for reaching or using the library collection NOTE For the electronic collection, this implies that the library has secured permanent or temporary access for its users by law, license or other contractual and/or cooperative agreement.
