E-books are often distributed by publishers in complete collections or thematic compilations. The identification of these collections plays an important role in the processing of metadata in libraries and library networks as well as in the display in search interfaces. All e-books in a jointly distributed collection must therefore contain a corresponding name or identification of the collection in the metadata. Either a publisher-internal label or a label assigned by the library community can be used for this purpose.
Some publishers compile e-book collections under identical collection titles based on license years. In such cases, the collection information consists of a label that also contains the license year.
Collection information (textual and/or publisher identifier) - optional |
|||
| Definition |
The information on the collection/product compiled by the publisher in which an e-book can be licensed is provided as a textual entry in the metadata record for the e-book. If this collection/product has its own identifier with the publisher, this can be specified instead of a textual description or in addition to it. A textual entry or the publisher's own identifier can be supplemented by the specification of a license year if required. |

| General notes | To use a product ISIL as collection information, see the table "Collection information (product ISIL)" below | ||

We suggest using the <collection> element for this purpose. | |

Collection information (product ISIL) and license year - optional |
|||
| Definition |
Information on the collection/product compiled by the publisher in which an e-book can be licensed is provided by specifying a product ISIL in the metadata record for the e-book. Such product ISILs for e-book collections are usually applied for by libraries or library network head offices at the responsible German ISIL agency at the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin and are publicly accessible*. Publishers can also use them to identify the collection for an e-book in its metadata, provided they know the corresponding product ISIL. If required, the product ISIL can be supplemented with the year of the license. |
||
| General notes |
ISIL = International Standard Identifier for Libraries and Related Organisations (ISO 15511) Collections with the same title that differ by year are specified by a license year in addition to the product ISIL. |

The recording of product ISILs is not provided for in ONIX 3.0.8. However, it can be carried out in one of the above-mentioned variants in consultation with the supplied library network headquarters/library. In option 2, "Produkt-ISIL" is assigned as the IDTypeName. If the product ISIL is to be specified by a license year, a suitable procedure will be agreed bilaterally with the supplied library network headquarters/library. |
