Institutional identifiers are intended to uniquely and permanently identify a library or subscribing institution for a content provider. This presentation covered the role of an identifier in improving delivery of serials and electronic resources from content providers to subscribers, identification efforts to date, the interaction of an identifier within the network of standards, and the effort to standardize the identifier. Institutional Identifiers (I2) is a NISO project.
