NISO Opens Its KBART Phase III Recommended Practice for Public Comment
The National Information Standards Organization (NISO) opened its draft revision of the Knowledge Bases and Related Tools (KBART) Phase III Recommended Practice for public comment through Nov. 10, 2025.NISO shares, “KBART is a NISO Recommended Practice that facilitates the transfer of holdings metadata from content providers to knowledge base suppliers and libraries. Its use helps to ensure the integrity and functionality of knowledge bases, which are widely used to support library link resolvers and electronic resource management systems. Since the publication of Phase II in 2014, the KBART Standing Committee has identified both needed clarifications and revisions to the Recommended Practice as well as substantial additions and new areas of work to cover. The draft of KBART Phase III includes support for additional content types (such as audio and video), additional support for hybrid open-access and global content, an overhaul of the KBART endorsement process, and provisions for a file manifest.” For more information, read the press release.
