U.S. ISSN Center To Launch New ISSN Request System

On 23 November 2020, the Library of Congress’s U.S. ISSN Center launched ISSN Uplink, a new  application and tracking system for International Standard Serial Numbers. Publishers and other users such as  Program for Cooperative Cataloging’s CONSER members will be able to apply online for ISSN, create accounts that include team members, track the status of their applications, communicate with ISSN staff members, and be able to see a history of all their applications, communications, and ISSN assigned. The applications submission history and record of communications in Uplink will allow ISSN staff to provide better service to users during the ISSN assignment process and for future inquiries. For further information, please review the ISSN Uplink Fast FAQs.
