ONIX-PL: An Adaptable Standard for E-Resource Licenses

author

Hiatt, C. Derrik

abstract

ONIX-PL is a NISO standard for encoding the various elements of a license agreement, thus facilitating the transmission of information about licenses from one computer to another. In April 2013, NISO announced a project, funded by a grant from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, to gather a collection of publisher licenses, encode them in ONIX-PL, and deposit the encoded versions into the Global Open Knowledgebase (GOKb), where they can be centrally stored and accessible to everyone.
