Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide
federation of national Standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work
of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Esch member body interested in a subject for
which a technical committee has been established has the right to be
represented on that committee. International organizations, govern-
mental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the
work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical
Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are
circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an Inter-
national Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member
bodies casting a vote.
International Standard ISO 9707 was prepared by Technical Committee
ISO/TC 46, Information and documentation, Sub-Committee SC 8, Stat-
istics.
Annex A of this International Standard is for information only.

Introduction
This International Standard is based on the UNESCO Revised rec-
ommendations concerning the international standardization of stafistics
on the production and distribution of books, newspapers and periodicals
WV) adopted by the General Conference at its twenty-third Session, in
Sofia, on 1 November 1985, and has been compiled with the close co-
Operation of UNESCO.
This International Standard aims at giving guidance to the international
publishing community on the keeping of publishing statistics. The close
cooperation between UNESCO and ISO in formulating this International
Standard has as its objective the Coordination of the International Stan-
dard and the UNESCO Recommendation, so as to minimize any possible
confusion.
lt is to be expected that, if publishers comply with the recommendations
of this International Standard, the completion of the UNESCO question-
naire, and other questionnaires relating to publishing, will be relatively
straightforward. In addition, statistics thus produced by different coun-
tries should be directly comparable.
broadened to include
The scope of this International Standard has been
micropublications and electronie publications.
The section on the statistics of electronie publications has not received
the extended treatment given to the other sections, because it is still in
its infancy. lt is anticipated that the section on electronie publications
could be revised in future, since an opportunity for revision is given ev-
ety five years.
defini tions pres ented in this International Standard are designed for
