INPUT CONVENTIONS

Structure - Other Standard Identifiers are unique, permanent and internationally recognized alphanumeric codes used to identify works and expressions. The codes may be defined by the ISO (International Organization for Standardization) and assigned by designated agencies. Some examples of these identifiers include the ISTC (International Standard Text Code), the ISWC (International Standard Musical Work Code), and the ISAN (International Standard Audiovisual Number). The structure of these numbers is determined by the agencies formulating them.
