The International Standards
Organizations (ISO) has developed an ISO 15511 in its first edition 2003
concerning identifying the libraries and related organizations. ENSTINET is
producing the Union Catalogue of Periodicals in Egyptian and the related
database Directory of Egyptian Research Libraries. ENSTINET is now
representing the ISIL system through the cooperation between ENSTINET and
the Danish National Library Authority which is the Registration Authority
for the ISIL.
The purpose of this
standard is to “define and promote the use of a set of standard identifiers
for the unique identification of libraries and related organizations” (ISO
15511:2003(E).
The importance if the ISIL
comes from the usage of a standard coding systems for the libraries in Union
Lists, correspondence, identification through having a UNIQUE code for each
