Unique Identifiers
Improve Discoverability:
- Search for a group of books which all contain the same work, even if the books have different titles
- Filter out unwanted books from a search result where they have the same title but different content
Comply With Territorial Rights:
- Automatically identify books intended for overseas markets when there is a territory-specific version available already, so enabling the respect of “sole territory rights”
Improve Collections Management and Sales & Loans Analysis:
- Collocate books automatically, even when they have different titles;
- Efficiently analyse sales or loans of a work even when it is published under multiple titles or is just a component of a larger publication.
