Resumen

AbstractIn 1975, the creation of the Centre d?enregistrement des publications en série (CIEPS) / International Centre for the Registration of Serial Publications was supported by Unesco and France. This intergovernmental organisation is responsible for identifying serial publications through the International Standard Serial Number (ISSN). Since 1975, this unique international entity has relied on a large network of ISSN national centres established in national libraries and scientific institutions worldwide. The network participation has evolved in parallel with the political evolution of Europe in the 1990s and still attracts new members which enlarge its scope and enhance its effectiveness. The Paris-based ISSN International Centre is at the nexus of this worldwide bibliographic cooperation since it produces and maintains the ISSN Register which records authoritative metadata about print and digital serial publications. The directors of the ISSN International Centre have played a significant role in the rich history of the ISSN network which has been engaged in various projects related to long-term digital preservation and Open Access publications.Keywords: International Standard Serial Number.

Diplomacy.Diplomacia seriada no Centro Internacional do ISSN: uma experiência única e sustentável (1975-2015)ResumoA criação do Centro Internacional de Registo de Publicações Seriadas (CIEPS) em 1975 foi apoiada pela Unesco e pela França. Esta organização intergovernamental é responsável por identificar publicações seriadas por meio do Número Internacional Normalizado para Publicações Seriadas (ISSN). Desde 1975, esta entidade internacional única contou com bibliotecas nacionais e instituições científicas em todo o mundo para o estabelecimento da grande rede de Centros Nacionais do ISSN. A rede avançou em paralelo com a evolução política da Europa na década de 1990 e ainda atrai novos membros que amplia o seu alcance e melhora a sua eficácia. O Centro Internacional do ISSN, com sede em Paris, é a conexão desta cooperação bibliográfica mundial, uma vez que produz e mantém o registro do ISSN de autoridades de publicações seriadas impressas e digitais. Os diretores do Centro Internacional desempenharam papel significativo na rica história da Rede ISSN, que tem se envolvido em vários projetos relacionados à preservação digital de longo prazo e publicações de acesso aberto.
