The PNB project  Develop an open distribution model of digital contents  Respect the role of each player

 Kick off : 23th August 2012  Workshop : September 2012 – February 2013  Specification (Dilicom) : September 2012 – February 2013  Implementation (Dilicom & suppliers) : March 2013 – May 2013  Implementation (1st group Booksellers & Libraries) : May– September 2013  First evaluation: October 2013 The pilot phase Stakeholders : 11 booksellers, 7 suppliers, 11 libraries, service providers

PNB is based on web services transactions The suppliers transmit to DILICOM the metadatas of the different offers defined by the publishers. The metadatas are collected in ONIX (ONline Information eXchange). The informations are controlled, integrated in DILICOM ‘s database and disseminate to booksellers & libraries in ONIX 3.0. Retailers can present the offers to the libraries on their website and place their orders through Web services. The ebook can be lended as soon as the e-suppliers has received the order through web services. Files are stored on e-suppliers’ platform. An new url is transmitted to the library for each new lending.

The caracteristics of the offers  eBooks can be : Read on line (in situ or ex situ), Read after have downloaded a epub or pdf file  The offers are defined by publishers for : a time-limited licence (one or two years) a number of simultaneous accesses a number of lendings a maximum time-limited of lending  The epub or pdf files have DRM protection applied by the Adobe CS4 Content Server Package

The major technical challenges  How to structure the information to bring enough flexibility that will enable business innovation to describe more and more complex offers (selection of titles from different collection, combination of print and ebook for example) to facilitate the integration in information systems to facilitate the display on websites  How to be less dependant on Adobe DRM system  How to be user friendly and offer the same experience level as integrated systems

The possible solutions Develop collaborative efforts at national and international levels  To promote : ISTC (International Standard Textual Work Code) [Electre] ISNI (International Standard Name Identifier) an ISO Standard for the Public Identities of parties [BnF – French National Library] THEMA : New Global Subject Codes Standard [International community]  To widen the conceptuel model for booktrade needs  To create open source standards for interchange, alternative digital lockers, DRM and software development kit (sdk) [Readium consortium, MO3T] …. And share the benefit with the community
