A free subset of the ISSN Register
• A free service based on the ISSN Register• Providing access to information on ≈13,500 online OA resources identified by 89 ISSN Centres
• Developed late 2013 by the ISSN IC in support of UNESCO policy promoting open science through GOAP

Purposes of ROAD
• To help researchers identify and select quality OA resources identified by ISSN
• To support OA in countries belonging to ISSN network
• To demonstrate new ways of searching the ISSN Register and linking information from various sources

Selection criteria• Open access to the whole content
of the resource • No moving wall• The resources comprise mainly
research papers• The target is mostly researchers and
scholars

PRESSOO: an extension of FRBROO
FRBROO: object-oriented version of FRBR
PRESSOO : FRBROO for serials and other continuing resources
– “An ontology which aims to represent the underlying semantics of bibliographic information about continuing resources, and more specifically about periodicals”
FRBROO chosen as a reference standard
– For its object-oriented approach: convenient for linked data
– As it is event-centric: to express the dynamic nature of serials
– As it allows interoperability with other cultural fields (as a CIDOC-CRM extension).

PRESSOO and the ISSN RegisterA specialized data model to represent serials and ongoing resources• “features” (frequency, medium...)• changes that affect them over the time (continuations, absorptions, splits...)
• relationships they can have with other serials (linguistic editions...)
Providing a linked-data friendly data modelImproving interoperability with other datasetsPRESSOO for the ISSN registry• Prepare the publication of (a subset of) the Register in the LOD• Mapping of National Centres’ MARC records to PRESSOO may be customized
according to national practices
Now an official standard of the IFLA cataloguing section.

ROAD data model
PRESSoo allows us to build:• a simplified data model to enable
an RDF dump download• a rich data model aligned on
PRESSoo • the most popular ontologies are
used: FOAF, DC terms, SKOS, Schema.org

Our strengths• 5 types of OA resources worldwide.• Identified by 89 ISSN national centres
worldwide.• 17 partnering registries, metrics,
indexing/abstracting services:ISSN is used as a matching key use, influence, promimence, quality.
