1) timetables, price-lists, telephone directories,
2) programmes of entertainments, exhibitions, fairs,
3) company regulations, reports and directives and circulars,
4) calendars, and
5) electronic texts under development;

c) publications in which the text is not the most important part, including
1) printed music documents where the music is more important than the words, and

This part of ISO 25964 also provides a data model and recommended format for the import and export of thesaurus data.

This part of ISO 25964 is applicable to monolingual and multilingual thesauri.

This part of ISO 25964 is not applicable to the preparation of back-of-the-book indexes, although many of its recommendations could be useful for that purpose.

5) ISO/TC 46/SC 10 N177: Information and documentation — Management of the environmental conditions for archive and library holdings

Do you approve the draft for publication?

TR 19815 “Environmental management for archive and library collections” provides information on recent discussions and changes in recommendations and guidance on environmental management within the cultural heritage field. Conservation research on preventive methodologies and passive control provided by specific construction methods and renovations, developments in technology for controlling the environment, and energy and climate change issues are included.
TR 19815 is intended for archives and libraries and other institutions with large volumes of collections that are based on paper. It is significant to recognise that archives and libraries also have collections that include film, magnetic media, leather, and other organic, inorganic or composite materials. These institutions have a unique challenge of extending the lifespan of these materials for access and use in the present and for future generations. The environment plays a key role in extending the lifespan of all of these materials.
TR 19815 is intended for use in preservation planning and ongoing environmental management of permanent storage conditions for archives and library collections and applies to all collections being permanently stored for an institution.

Your voting options are:

YES - approve this as a new project (nominate expert(s) if you have one; comments on the working draft are encouraged but optional)

NO - do not approve this as a new project (comments required on why)

ABSTAIN from voting (comments optional)

 6) Systematic Review of ISO 2709:2008 - Information and documentation -- Format for information exchange

Do you recommend ISO 2709:2008 be confirmed, revised, or withdrawn?

his is a ballot for the five-year of systematic review of the TC46/SC4 standard ISO 2709:2008 - Information and documentation -- Format for information exchange

This International Standard specifies the requirements for a generalized exchange format which will hold records describing all forms of material capable of bibliographic description as well as other types of records.

It does not define the length or the content of individual records and does not assign any meaning to tags, indicators or identifiers, these specifications being the functions of an implementation format.

This International Standard describes a generalized structure, a framework designed specially for communications between data processing systems and not for use as a processing format within systems.

***If you are using this standard, please note that in your vote comments. If you are using a different standard/guideline for the intended purpose of this standard, please indicate which one in your comments.

One person can respond to the following questions to accompany your vote:
1. Has this International Standard been adopted or is it intended to be adopted in the future as a national standard or other publication?	

2. Is the national publication identical to the International Standard or was it modified?	

3. If this International Standard has not been nationally adopted, is it applied or used in your country without national adoption or are products/processes/services used in your country based on this standard?	

4. Is this International Standard, or its national adoption, referenced in regulations in your country?	

5. In case the committee decides to Revise/Amend, will/are you committed to participate actively in the development of the project?
