In spite of its age - Z39.19 was first presented as a Standard in 1974 - it is still relevant in many parts of the information community. The Standard has been revised twice since its inception, most recently in 1993. The limitations of the existing Standard and the scope of the planned revisions are described. The article concludes with the status of the work in progress and plans for its release.","PeriodicalId":170192,"journal":{"name":"The Indexer: The International Journal of Indexing: Volume 24, Issue 2","volume":"68 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132766970","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
