This International Standard defines generalized bibliographic filing principles to be incorporated into the bibliographic filing rules of individual bibliographies, libraries, and documentation centres as well as those of entire nations or language groups. This International Standard is applicable to bibliographic information as printed or displayed, to the identification of filing units within bibliographic records for exchange in machine-readable form, and to the manipulation of these records by manual and machine-based techniques.

NOTE The examples given in this International Standard are not meant to be prescriptive, but rather to reflect a particular set of bibliographic filing rules (see ISO/TR 8393).
