The National Serials Data Program |
| DESCRIPTION: |
The page features both a downloadable and an interactive ISSN
application form. Use of the form is limited to U.S. publishers since NSDP can assign ISSN
only to serials published in the United States. However, the page also includes a link to
the ISSN International Centre's Web site. The U.S. center's page also includes the text of
NSDP's printed _ISSN Is for Serials_ brochure, a frequently asked questions (FAQ) list,
special instructions about ISSN for electronic serials, and the text of the brochure,
_What's in a Name?_ developed by the Serials Section of the Association for Library
Collections & Technical Services (ALCTS), a division of the American Library
Association. This brochure contains guidelines on the presentation of titles, title
changes, numbering, bar coding, and other areas of interest to serial publishers. The page
concludes with links to related resources for serial publishers. NSDP staff are looking
forward to publishers' use of the interactive application form because the form is linked
to a conversion program that will enable a cataloger to convert the data supplied by the
publisher into a preliminary catalog record, ready for editing and the addition of an ISSN
and specialized data by the cataloger. |
