ConfidenceThe two main problems for maintaining persistence are

bull duplicates needing to be merged

bull undifferentiated identities needing to be split

ISNI errs on the side of making duplicates rather than mixed identities

Thus the batch load process (usually) makes a provisional record

bull where there is no match (for fear of making a duplicate assignment)

bull where there is a low confidence match (for fear of making a mixed

identity or a duplicate assignment)

bull where a matching record already has another local ID for the same

source regardless of the strength of the match (for fear of making a

mixed identity)

ConfidenceThe two main problems for maintaining persistence are

bull duplicates needing to be merged

bull undifferentiated identities needing to be split

ISNI errs on the side of making duplicates rather than mixed identities

Thus the batch load process (usually) makes a provisional record

bull where there is no match (for fear of making a duplicate assignment)

bull where there is a low confidence match (for fear of making a mixed

identity or a duplicate assignment)

bull where a matching record already has another local ID for the same

source regardless of the strength of the match (for fear of making a

mixed identity)

ConfidenceThe two main problems for maintaining persistence are

bull duplicates needing to be merged

bull undifferentiated identities needing to be split

ISNI errs on the side of making duplicates rather than mixed identities

Thus the batch load process (usually) makes a provisional record

bull where there is no match (for fear of making a duplicate assignment)

bull where there is a low confidence match (for fear of making a mixed

identity or a duplicate assignment)

bull where a matching record already has another local ID for the same

source regardless of the strength of the match (for fear of making a

mixed identity)

ConfidenceThe two main problems for maintaining persistence are

bull duplicates needing to be merged

bull undifferentiated identities needing to be split

ISNI errs on the side of making duplicates rather than mixed identities

Thus the batch load process (usually) makes a provisional record

bull where there is no match (for fear of making a duplicate assignment)

bull where there is a low confidence match (for fear of making a mixed

identity or a duplicate assignment)

bull where a matching record already has another local ID for the same

source regardless of the strength of the match (for fear of making a

mixed identity)

ConfidenceThe two main problems for maintaining persistence are

bull duplicates needing to be merged

bull undifferentiated identities needing to be split

ISNI errs on the side of making duplicates rather than mixed identities

Thus the batch load process (usually) makes a provisional record

bull where there is no match (for fear of making a duplicate assignment)

bull where there is a low confidence match (for fear of making a mixed

identity or a duplicate assignment)

bull where a matching record already has another local ID for the same

source regardless of the strength of the match (for fear of making a

mixed identity)

ConfidenceThe two main problems for maintaining persistence are

bull duplicates needing to be merged

bull undifferentiated identities needing to be split

ISNI errs on the side of making duplicates rather than mixed identities

Thus the batch load process (usually) makes a provisional record

bull where there is no match (for fear of making a duplicate assignment)

bull where there is a low confidence match (for fear of making a mixed

identity or a duplicate assignment)

bull where a matching record already has another local ID for the same

source regardless of the strength of the match (for fear of making a

mixed identity)

ConfidenceThe two main problems for maintaining persistence are

bull duplicates needing to be merged

bull undifferentiated identities needing to be split

ISNI errs on the side of making duplicates rather than mixed identities

Thus the batch load process (usually) makes a provisional record

bull where there is no match (for fear of making a duplicate assignment)

bull where there is a low confidence match (for fear of making a mixed

identity or a duplicate assignment)

bull where a matching record already has another local ID for the same

source regardless of the strength of the match (for fear of making a

mixed identity)

bull duplicates needing to be merged

bull undifferentiated identities needing to be split

ISNI errs on the side of making duplicates rather than mixed identities

Thus the batch load process (usually) makes a provisional record

bull where there is no match (for fear of making a duplicate assignment)

bull where there is a low confidence match (for fear of making a mixed

identity or a duplicate assignment)

bull where a matching record already has another local ID for the same

source regardless of the strength of the match (for fear of making a

ConfidenceThe two main problems for maintaining persistence are

bull duplicates needing to be merged

bull undifferentiated identities needing to be split

ISNI errs on the side of making duplicates rather than mixed identities

Thus the batch load process (usually) makes a provisional record

bull where there is no match (for fear of making a duplicate assignment)

bull where there is a low confidence match (for fear of making a mixed

identity or a duplicate assignment)

bull where a matching record already has another local ID for the same

source regardless of the strength of the match (for fear of making a

mixed identity)

ConfidenceThe two main problems for maintaining persistence are

bull duplicates needing to be merged

bull undifferentiated identities needing to be split

ISNI errs on the side of making duplicates rather than mixed identities

Thus the batch load process (usually) makes a provisional record

bull where there is no match (for fear of making a duplicate assignment)

bull where there is a low confidence match (for fear of making a mixed

identity or a duplicate assignment)

bull where a matching record already has another local ID for the same

source regardless of the strength of the match (for fear of making a

mixed identity)

ConfidenceThe two main problems for maintaining persistence are

bull duplicates needing to be merged

bull undifferentiated identities needing to be split

ISNI errs on the side of making duplicates rather than mixed identities

Thus the batch load process (usually) makes a provisional record

bull where there is no match (for fear of making a duplicate assignment)

bull where there is a low confidence match (for fear of making a mixed

identity or a duplicate assignment)

bull where a matching record already has another local ID for the same

source regardless of the strength of the match (for fear of making a

mixed identity)
