Approved by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI), this 1.1 revision improves a web standard that details various capabilities that a server can implement to allow third-party systems to remain synchronized with evolving resources. Such synchronization is important in the current landscape where Web-based content--not only the metadata about the content--is constantly changing.

The standard, also known as the ResourceSync "core" specification, offers a range of easy-to-implement capabilities that a server may support in order to enable remote systems to remain more tightly in step with its evolving resources. It also describes how a server should advertise the facilities it supports, and presents plentiful examples and use cases that offer guidance for implementation. The recent revisions to the standard, which is pull-based, reflect changes to fix problems related to the conflation of last modification date of a resource and the datetime of notification of a change to the resource.

"Our revision to the ResourceSync core specification strengthens a standard that addresses a core need for resource discovery and synchronization across different systems in domains such as scholarly communication, cultural heritage, and education. ResourceSync is very modular in design and is based on the HTTP and Sitemap protocols to ensure easy uptake in many applications, including--but not limited to--timely sharing of data from different types of repositories. Also, associated optional specifications provide extensions to the ANSI/NISO ResourceSync core. These include specifications to support archives of synchronization information and push-based change notification."

"We're grateful to the ResourceSync working group whose efforts make this publication more valuable to those whose work relies on seamless updating of information. NISO also strives to create guidelines that are adaptable at various levels and for various needs. ResourceSync's modular capabilities can be customized for specific local or community requirements, making them useful for the range of institutions that use our standards."

   NISO Announces Updated Version of ResourceSync Framework Specification
   Baltimore, MD - February 16, 2017 - The National Information Standards
   Organization (NISO) is pleased to announce the formal publication of an
   updated version of the [4]ResourceSync Framework Specification (ANSI/NISO
   Z39.99-2017). Approved by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI),
   this 1.1 revision improves a web standard that details various capabilities
   that a server can implement to allow third-party systems to remain
   synchronized with evolving resources. Such synchronization is important in
   the current landscape where Web-based content--not only the metadata about
   the content--is constantly changing.
   ResourceSync was first published as ANSI/NISO Z39.99 in 2014. The standard,
   also known as the ResourceSync "core" specification, offers a range of
   easy-to-implement capabilities that a server may support in order to enable
   remote systems to remain more tightly in step with its evolving resources.
   It also describes how a server should advertise the facilities it supports,
   and presents plentiful examples and use cases that offer guidance for
   implementation. The recent revisions to the standard, which is pull-based,
   reflect changes to fix problems related to the conflation of last
   modification date of a resource and the datetime of notification of a change
   to the resource.
   "Web resources and collections of web resources are continually evolving
   and, in many cases, applications that want to leverage these resources need
   to be confident that the data they use is the most up-to-date available,"
   says Herbert Van de Sompel, Scientist, Los Alamos National Laboratory, OAI
   Executive, and Co-chair of the ResourceSync Working Group. "Our revision to
   the ResourceSync core specification strengthens a standard that addresses a
   core need for resource discovery and synchronization across different
   systems in domains such as scholarly communication, cultural heritage, and
   education. ResourceSync is very modular in design and is based on the HTTP
