Ringgold Makes Access to ISNI Information Easier
Ringgold announced Open ISNI for Organizations, a free service that will provide access to ISNI (International Standard Name Identifier) information for organizations. The service features an API that helps organizations obtain and resolve existing ISNIs; the ability to download a complete dataset of ISNIs, organization names, locations, alternate names, and URLs; and a free way to search and obtain ISNI records. “Any dataset mapped to ISNIs, whether open or proprietary, can be linked together to provide interoperability between systems to benefit the entire scholarly community,” according to Ringgold’s press release. “In our capacity as an ISNI Registration Agency, we have created Open ISNI for Organizations as a conduit to ease access, increase adoption, and improve the utility of ISNI.”For more information, read the press release.
