I-spy ISILs

$

0

We have now been assigned an ISIL (“International Standard Identifier for Libraries” and related organisations) for each of our five libraries, by the British Library (the UK national agency for the ISIL).

Think of an ISIL as being like an ISBN or ISSN for an entire library: a way of uniquely and unambiguously identifying that library, distinct from all others. The ISIL standard is ISO 15511:2009.

The ISIL is intended for use by libraries and agencies doing business with libraries, such as suppliers and publishers. An ISIL identifies an organization, or one of its subordinate units, throughout its life.

Our five ISILs are:

GB-UkLiUGCW University of Lincoln Great Central Warehouse University Library
GB-UkLiUTRR University of Lincoln Theology Reading Room, Chad Varah House
GB-UkLiURPC University of Lincoln Riseholme Park Campus Library
GB-UkSnHOC University of Lincoln Holbeach Campus Library
GB-UkHlHUC University of Lincoln Hull Campus Library
