Information and documentation — RFID in libraries — Part 1: Data elements and general guidelines for implementation

ISO 28560-1:2011 specifies a model for the use of radio frequency identification (RFID) tags for items appropriate for the needs of all types of libraries, including academic, public, corporate, special and school. ISO 28560-1:2011 provides the framework to ensure interoperability between libraries in exchange of library items with RFID tags, the freedom of the library to acquire or renew equipment or library items from different vendors and interoperability of a single RFID application from the vendor's perspective. ISO 28560-1:2011 specifies a set of data elements and general guidelines for implementation, to meet the needs for: circulation of library items; acquisition of library items; inter-library loan processes; data requirements of publishers, printers and other suppliers of library items; inventory and stock checking of items. ISO 28560-1:2011 gives guidelines for item security, profiles, privacy, implementation, migration, label design and location of the RFID label. ISO 28560-1:2011 specifies the data model, system data elements and user data elements to be used in conjunction with ISO 28560-2, ISO 28560-3 and any future parts of ISO 28560.

Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies
(ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been
established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and
non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the
International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.
The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards
adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an
International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote.
Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent

ISO 28560-1:2011(E)
Introduction
Libraries are implementing RFID (radio frequency identification) as item identification to replace bar codes.
RFID streamlines applications like user self-service, security, and materials handling. A standard data model
for encoding information on RFID tags could increase the cost-effectiveness of the technology within libraries
particularly through greater interoperability of RFID tags and equipment, and enhance support for resource
sharing between libraries.
Tags that are currently used in libraries will use proprietary rules adopted by vendors or follow the rules of
historic national RFID models. In general, there will be no interoperability between tags with a data model
compliant with ISO 28560 and tags that carry a non-ISO 28560-compliant data model.
Several countries have undertaken preliminary work on standardization. The Netherlands developed a data
model for public libraries and in Denmark “RFID Data Model for Libraries” has been published. Finland has
adopted the Danish model, but with a few changes. There is a French data model that differs from the Danish
and Dutch models. Other libraries in different parts of the world have installations based on various proprietary
systems offered by technology and library system suppliers. All of these constitute the installed base of RFID
systems, but only account for a small minority of the total of libraries globally.
There is an opportunity to develop a standard data model, taking into account the lessons learned from the
national schemes and vendor solutions, and provide migration options for those libraries that have already
invested in the technology. Because new items are continually being purchased, a number of migration
options can be adopted based on factors relevant to each library.
This part of ISO 28560 deals with data elements and provides general guidelines for implementation. Other
parts of ISO 28560 describe encodings and choice of frequency.
Communication between the RFID reader and the library system (or other applications) is handled by, for
example, SIP-2 and NCIP (see Bibliography).
ISO 28560 provides essential standards-based information about RFID in libraries. Ongoing advice needs to
be provided because of the evolving nature of RFID technology, and the opportunities to migrate between
different types of legacy system and encoding rules of ISO 28560.

Information and documentation — RFID in libraries —
Part 1:
Data elements and general guidelines for implementation
1 Scope
This part of ISO 28560 specifies a model for the use of radio frequency identification (RFID) tags for items
appropriate for the needs of all types of libraries, including academic, public, corporate, special and school.
This part of ISO 28560 provides the framework to ensure interoperability between libraries that exchange
library items with RFID tags, the freedom of the library to acquire or renew equipment or library items from
different vendors and interoperability of a single RFID application from the vendor's perspective.
This part of ISO 28560 specifies a set of data elements and general guidelines for implementation, to meet the
needs for:
⎯ circulation of library items;
⎯ acquisition of library items;
⎯ interlibrary loan processes;
⎯ data requirements of publishers, printers and other suppliers of library items;
⎯ inventory and stock checking of items.
This part of ISO 28560 gives guidelines for item security, profiles, privacy, implementation, migration, label
design and location of the RFID label.
This part of ISO 28560 specifies the data model, system data elements and user data elements to be used in

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
distributor
wholesaler that purchases products from manufacturers and sells them to retailers or other wholesalers
NOTE In the context of ISO 28560, a distributor is a wholesaler that purchases library materials such as books or
audiovisual materials from publishers and sells them to libraries or retailers.
3.2
interlibrary loan
ILL
service where a library borrows an item from another library
3.3
item
unit tracked in a library system
NOTE An item, which can be a set (3.7), can be loanable or non-circulating, but is always loaned in its entirety.
3.4
jobber
specialized distributor of library items that provides services such as the attachment of labelling and electronic
information to items to make them ready for immediate shelving upon arrival at the destination library
3.5
library management system
enterprise resource planning system for a library, used to track items owned, items loaned, orders made, bills
paid, and patrons
NOTE In some countries, this is known as an integrated library system.
3.6
part
individual physical entity included in an item
3.7
set
item consisting of a number of parts, all identified by the same item identifier and loaned in one transaction as
a unit
3.8
supply chain
series of entities, typically beginning with a publisher and ending with a library, through which library materials
flow as they are acquired by that library
4 User data elements
4.1 Overview of user data elements
Libraries may choose which data elements they want to store on the tag. It is unlikely that a library will place
all the listed data elements on the tag. A number of data elements are reserved for local use. They should be
ignored where the processing institution is not the owner of the item (as in ILL).
Table 1 lists the user data elements that are defined in ISO 28560.

ISO 28560-1:2011(E)
4.2 Use of user data elements
4.2.1 Primary item identifier
The library's unique identification of an item shall be used as the primary item identifier. This data element is
required for circulation. It may be absent in the acquisition process.
The primary item identifier can be, but need not be equivalent to the (former) bar code. It may be decided at a
local or national level if the identifier should be unique outside the library and how this is to be achieved.
Annex B illustrates how the primary item identifier can be combined with other data to achieve increasing
levels of uniqueness, ultimately global uniqueness.
4.2.2 Content parameter
The content parameter data element specifies the structure of the tag data. The parameter can have different
forms for the various possible encoding methodologies specified in other parts of ISO 28560.
4.2.3 Owner institution (ISIL)
The owner institution (ISIL) data element is used for the ISIL code for the institution that owns the item.
The ISIL code shall be as defined in ISO 15511.
The list of ISIL agencies that are responsible for the issuing process of ISIL codes can be found at
http://biblstandard.dk/isil/.
In exceptional cases, the ISIL code, or parts of the ISIL code, may be stored in data element 23 (alternative
owner institution).
4.2.4 Set information
4.2.4.1 General
If the set information data element is encoded, it shall consist of two components:
a) “number of parts in item”, followed by
b) “ordinal part number”,
as specified in 4.2.4.2 and 4.2.4.3. These two component parameters are used to identify various
permutations relating to sets.
A single part item is the default case. A system reading a tag that does not contain the set information data
element may assume that the item has only a single part.
4.2.4.2 Numbers of parts in item
For sets with only a single part, the “numbers of parts in item” component shall take the value “1”.
For sets with more than a single part, the “numbers of parts in item” component shall take a value in the
range 0 to 255, where a positive number indicates the total number of parts in the set, and 0 that the total
number is not known.
© ISO 2011 – All rights reserved 5

---------------------- Page: 10 ----------------------
ISO 28560-1:2011(E)
4.2.4.3 Ordinal part number
For sets with only a single part, the “ordinal part number” component shall take the value “1”.
For sets with more than a single part, the “ordinal part number” component shall take a value in the range 0 to
255, under one of these two conditions.
⎯ If all parts in the set carry an RFID tag, a positive ordinal part number corresponding to the placement of
the part in the set shall be assigned to each part.
⎯ If only some of the parts in the set carry an RFID tag, the first part shall be assigned the ordinal part
number 0, and the following parts an ordinal part number corresponding to the placement of the part in
the set. As a consequence, no part shall be assigned the ordinal part number 1.
4.2.4.4 Examples
EXAMPLE 1 A set with three parts, all with their own RFID tags:
Number of this part = 1 (first RFID tag): code = 31
Number of this part = 2 (second RFID tag): code = 32
Number of this part = 3 (third RFID tag): code = 33
EXAMPLE 2 A set consisting of a single part with one RFID tag:
Number of this part = 1: code = 11 (if present)
EXAMPLE 3 A set consists of 12 parts, and this is the fourth part:
Number of this part = 4 (fourth RFID tag): code = 1204
EXAMPLE 4 A set having four parts but one part does not carry an RFID tag:
Number of this part = 1 (first RFID tag): code = 40
Number of this part = 2 (second RFID tag): code = 42
Number of this part = 3 (third RFID tag): code = 43
Number of this part = 4 (no RFID tag)
NOTE 1 The “0” of the first part serves two functions:
a) it indicates that not all parts have an RFID tag, and
b) it indicates that this is the first part.
EXAMPLE 5 A set having an unknown number of parts or increasing in number of parts over time.
Number of this part = 1 (first RFID tag): code = 01
Number of this part = 2 (second RFID tag): code = 02
Number of this part = 3 (third RFID tag): code = 03
Number of this part = 4 (fourth RFID tag): code = 04
NOTE 2 The initial “0” indicates that the number of parts is not fixed.

ISO 28560-1:2011(E)
4.2.5 Type of usage
4.2.5.1 General
The type of usage data element provides additional qualifying information about the item, for example the type
of material and its use within the library. As synergies between RFID-enabled devices become more common,
this data element may be set dynamically by one RFID device for the benefit of another. If this data element is
encoded, it shall use the values specified in Annex C.
4.2.5.2 Examples
EXAMPLE 1 An acquisition item that arrives at a library can be processed automatically if it has the following type of
usage parameters:
Main qualifier = 0 (Class = acquisition item)
Sub-qualifier = 1 (Sub-class = for automated processes)
EXAMPLE 2 If a similar acquisition item is only parameterized by a main qualifier, it can have the following type of
usage parameters:
Main qualifier = 0 (Class = acquisition item)
Sub-qualifier is absent means that the sub-class is unspecified (identical to sub-qualifier value zero)
EXAMPLE 3 An item for circulation that has to be handled with care and is not suited for automatic sorting has the
following type of usage parameters:
Main qualifier = 1 (Class = item for circulation)
Sub-qualifier = 2 (Sub-class = not for automatic sorting)
EXAMPLE 4 A discarded item that is offered for sale has the following type of usage parameters:
Main qualifier = 7 (Class = discarded item)
Sub-qualifier = 1 (Sub-class = for sale)
4.2.6 Shelf location
The shelf location data element holds the location of the item.
The data element may take any value the library decides to use. The values reflect the library's shelf location
system and are only intended for use in the library owning the item.
Automatic sorting systems may use this data element for sorting purposes.
4.2.7 ONIX media format
The ONIX media format data element shall, if encoded, represent an ONIX media descriptor of two alphabetic
characters.
These media descriptors are based on the ONIX Books Product Form Code List, published and maintained by
1)
EDItEUR . Use the latest product form code from the ONIX Books Code Lists (see http://www.editeur.org).

1) EDItEUR is the international group coordinating development of the standards infrastructure for electronic commerce
in the book and serials industries.

---------------------- Page: 12 ----------------------
ISO 28560-1:2011(E)
4.2.8 MARC media format
The MARC media format data element shall, if encoded, represent a MARC 21 category of material
descriptor.
This media descriptor is a compound of two letters defined by positions 6 and 7 in the leader of a MARC 21
record. See http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic.
4.2.9 Supplier identifier
The supplier identifier data element is used for identification of the supplier of the item.
If a supplier code is determined by the purchasing library or its owner body (e.g. university, city, government)
there might be structure rules already in place. If not, it is recommended to define a unique list on a national
level. Annex D indicates a method using a country prefix.
4.2.10 Order number
The order number data element is used for an order number meaningful to the library and to the supplier of
the item.
4.2.11 ILL borrowing institution (ISIL)
The ILL borrowing institution (ISIL) data element is used for identification of an institution borrowing the item.
When using this data element, the borrowing institution shall be represented by the ISIL code according to
ISO 15511. The data element is formatted according to similar rules as defined for the owner institution (ISIL)
data element (4.2.3). The ILL borrowing institution (ISIL) data element and the alternative ILL borrowing
institution data element (4.2.25) are mutually exclusive.
4.2.12 ILL borrowing transaction number
The ILL borrowing transaction number data element is used to identify an ILL transaction.
The ILL borrowing transaction number is assigned by the ILL transaction processing system and encoded by
the lending institution to identify an interlibrary loan transaction. The structure of the number is locally defined.
4.2.13 GS1 product identifier
2)
The GS1 product identifier data element shall, if encoded, be used to store the GTIN-13 code of GS1 .
The Global Trade Item Number (GTIN) is a code that identifies the product and not the individual item.
The GTIN-13 has 13 digits and is commonly seen on retail products in a bar code format and is (without the
check digit) also an element of tags used in retail that follow the electronic product code scheme of GS1/EPC
3)
Global. The GTIN-13 code is commonly called the UPC code in the United States, and in other parts of the
4)
world it is known as the EAN-13 code .
The GTIN-13 code includes the encoding of:
⎯ the ISBN, with the prefixes “978” and “979”;

ISO 28560-1:2011(E) iv © ISO 2011 – All rights reserved Foreword ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization. International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2. The main task of technical committees is to prepare International Standards. Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting a vote. Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. ISO 28560-1 was prepared by Technical Committee ISO/TC 46, Information and documentation, Subcommittee SC 4, Technical interoperability. ISO 28560 consists of the following parts, under the general title Information and documentation — RFID in libraries: ⎯ Part 1: Data elements and general guidelines for implementation ⎯ Part 2: Encoding of RFID data elements based on rules from ISO/IEC 15962 ⎯ Part 3: Fixed length encoding SIST ISO 28560-1:2011



ISO 28560-1:2011(E) © ISO 2011 – All rights reserved v Introduction Libraries are implementing RFID (radio frequency identification) as item identification to replace bar codes. RFID streamlines applications like user self-service, security, and materials handling. A standard data model for encoding information on RFID tags could increase the cost-effectiveness of the technology within libraries particularly through greater interoperability of RFID tags and equipment, and enhance support for resource sharing between libraries. Tags that are currently used in libraries will use proprietary rules adopted by vendors or follow the rules of historic national RFID models. In general, there will be no interoperability between tags with a data model compliant with ISO 28560 and tags that carry a non-ISO 28560-compliant data model. Several countries have undertaken preliminary work on standardization. The Netherlands developed a data model for public libraries and in Denmark “RFID Data Model for Libraries” has been published. Finland has adopted the Danish model, but with a few changes. There is a French data model that differs from the Danish and Dutch models. Other libraries in different parts of the world have installations based on various proprietary systems offered by technology and library system suppliers. All of these constitute the installed base of RFID systems, but only account for a small minority of the total of libraries globally. There is an opportunity to develop a standard data model, taking into account the lessons learned from the national schemes and vendor solutions, and provide migration options for those libraries that have already invested in the technology. Because new items are continually being purchased, a number of migration options can be adopted based on factors relevant to each library. This part of ISO 28560 deals with data elements and provides general guidelines for implementation. Other parts of ISO 28560 describe encodings and choice of frequency. Communication between the RFID reader and the library system (or other applications) is handled by, for example, SIP-2 and NCIP (see Bibliography). ISO 28560 provides essential standards-based information about RFID in libraries. Ongoing advice needs to be provided because of the evolving nature of RFID technology, and the opportunities to migrate between different types of legacy system and encoding rules of ISO 28560.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD ISO 28560-1:2011(E) © ISO 2011 – All rights reserved 1 Information and documentation — RFID in libraries — Part 1: Data elements and general guidelines for implementation 1 Scope This part of ISO 28560 specifies a model for the use of radio frequency identification (RFID) tags for items appropriate for the needs of all types of libraries, including academic, public, corporate, special and school. This part of ISO 28560 provides the framework to ensure interoperability between libraries that exchange library items with RFID tags, the freedom of the library to acquire or renew equipment or library items from different vendors and interoperability of a single RFID application from the vendor's perspective. This part of ISO 28560 specifies a set of data elements and general guidelines for implementation, to meet the needs for: ⎯ circulation of library items; ⎯ acquisition of library items; ⎯ interlibrary loan processes; ⎯ data requirements of publishers, printers and other suppliers of library items; ⎯ inventory and stock checking of items. This part of ISO 28560 gives guidelines for item security, profiles, privacy, implementation, migration, label design and location of the RFID label. This part of ISO 28560 specifies the data model, system data elements and user data elements to be used in conjunction with ISO 28560-2, ISO 28560-3 and any future parts of ISO 28560. A source of additional information about implementation issues is provided in Annex A. 2 Normative references The following referenced documents are indispensable for the application of this document.

ISO 28560-1:2011(E) © ISO 2011 – All rights reserved 5 4.2 Use of user data elements 4.2.1 Primary item identifier The library's unique identification of an item shall be used as the primary item identifier. This data element is required for circulation. It may be absent in the acquisition process. The primary item identifier can be, but need not be equivalent to the (former) bar code. It may be decided at a local or national level if the identifier should be unique outside the library and how this is to be achieved. Annex B illustrates how the primary item identifier can be combined with other data to achieve increasing levels of uniqueness, ultimately global uniqueness. 4.2.2 Content parameter The content parameter data element specifies the structure of the tag data. The parameter can have different forms for the various possible encoding methodologies specified in other parts of ISO 28560. 4.2.3 Owner institution (ISIL) The owner institution (ISIL) data element is used for the ISIL code for the institution that owns the item. The ISIL code shall be as defined in ISO 15511. The list of ISIL agencies that are responsible for the issuing process of ISIL codes can be found at http://biblstandard.dk/isil/. In exceptional cases, the ISIL code, or parts of the ISIL code, may be stored in data element 23 (alternative owner institution). 4.2.4 Set information 4.2.4.1 General If the set information data element is encoded, it shall consist of two components: a) “number of parts in item”, followed by b) “ordinal part number”, as specified in 4.2.4.2 and 4.2.4.3. These two component parameters are used to identify various permutations relating to sets. A single part item is the default case. A system reading a tag that does not contain the set information data element may assume that the item has only a single part. 4.2.4.2 Numbers of parts in item For sets with only a single part, the “numbers of parts in item” component shall take the value “1”. For sets with more than a single part, the “numbers of parts in item” component shall take a value in the range 0 to 255, where a positive number indicates the total number of parts in the set, and 0 that the total number is not known.

ISO 28560-1:2011(E) 6 © ISO 2011 – All rights reserved 4.2.4.3 Ordinal part number For sets with only a single part, the “ordinal part number” component shall take the value “1”. For sets with more than a single part, the “ordinal part number” component shall take a value in the range 0 to 255, under one of these two conditions. ⎯ If all parts in the set carry an RFID tag, a positive ordinal part number corresponding to the placement of the part in the set shall be assigned to each part. ⎯ If only some of the parts in the set carry an RFID tag, the first part shall be assigned the ordinal part number 0, and the following parts an ordinal part number corresponding to the placement of the part in the set. As a consequence, no part shall be assigned the ordinal part number 1. 4.2.4.4 Examples EXAMPLE 1 A set with three parts, all with their own RFID tags: Number of this part = 1 (first RFID tag): code = 31 Number of this part = 2 (second RFID tag): code = 32 Number of this part = 3 (third RFID tag): code = 33 EXAMPLE 2 A set consisting of a single part with one RFID tag: Number of this part = 1: code = 11 (if present) EXAMPLE 3 A set consists of 12 parts, and this is the fourth part: Number of this part = 4 (fourth RFID tag): code = 1204 EXAMPLE 4 A set having four parts but one part does not carry an RFID tag: Number of this part = 1 (first RFID tag): code = 40 Number of this part = 2 (second RFID tag): code = 42 Number of this part = 3 (third RFID tag): code = 43 Number of this part = 4 (no RFID tag)
NOTE 1 The “0” of the first part serves two functions: a) it indicates that not all parts have an RFID tag, and
b) it indicates that this is the first part. EXAMPLE 5 A set having an unknown number of parts or increasing in number of parts over time. Number of this part = 1 (first RFID tag): code = 01 Number of this part = 2 (second RFID tag): code = 02 Number of this part = 3 (third RFID tag): code = 03 Number of this part = 4 (fourth RFID tag): code = 04 NOTE 2 The initial “0” indicates that the number of parts is not fixed.

ISO 28560-1:2011(E) © ISO 2011 – All rights reserved 7 4.2.5 Type of usage 4.2.5.1 General The type of usage data element provides additional qualifying information about the item, for example the type of material and its use within the library. As synergies between RFID-enabled devices become more common, this data element may be set dynamically by one RFID device for the benefit of another. If this data element is encoded, it shall use the values specified in Annex C. 4.2.5.2 Examples EXAMPLE 1 An acquisition item that arrives at a library can be processed automatically if it has the following type of usage parameters: Main qualifier = 0 (Class = acquisition item) Sub-qualifier = 1 (Sub-class = for automated processes) EXAMPLE 2 If a similar acquisition item is only parameterized by a main qualifier, it can have the following type of usage parameters: Main qualifier = 0 (Class = acquisition item) Sub-qualifier is absent means that the sub-class is unspecified (identical to sub-qualifier value zero) EXAMPLE 3 An item for circulation that has to be handled with care and is not suited for automatic sorting has the following type of usage parameters: Main qualifier = 1 (Class = item for circulation) Sub-qualifier = 2 (Sub-class = not for automatic sorting) EXAMPLE 4 A discarded item that is offered for sale has the following type of usage parameters: Main qualifier = 7 (Class = discarded item) Sub-qualifier = 1 (Sub-class = for sale) 4.2.6 Shelf location The shelf location data element holds the location of the item. The data element may take any value the library decides to use. The values reflect the library's shelf location system and are only intended for use in the library owning the item. Automatic sorting systems may use this data element for sorting purposes. 4.2.7 ONIX media format The ONIX media format data element shall, if encoded, represent an ONIX media descriptor of two alphabetic characters. These media descriptors are based on the ONIX Books Product Form Code List, published and maintained by EDItEUR1). Use the latest product form code from the ONIX Books Code Lists (see http://www.editeur.org).

ISO 28560-1:2011(E) 8 © ISO 2011 – All rights reserved 4.2.8 MARC media format The MARC media format data element shall, if encoded, represent a MARC 21 category of material descriptor. This media descriptor is a compound of two letters defined by positions 6 and 7 in the leader of a MARC 21 record. See http://www.loc.gov/marc/bibliographic. 4.2.9 Supplier identifier The supplier identifier data element is used for identification of the supplier of the item.
If a supplier code is determined by the purchasing library or its owner body (e.g. university, city, government) there might be structure rules already in place. If not, it is recommended to define a unique list on a national level. Annex D indicates a method using a country prefix. 4.2.10 Order number The order number data element is used for an order number meaningful to the library and to the supplier of the item. 4.2.11 ILL borrowing institution (ISIL) The ILL borrowing institution (ISIL) data element is used for identification of an institution borrowing the item. When using this data element, the borrowing institution shall be represented by the ISIL code according to ISO 15511. The data element is formatted according to similar rules as defined for the owner institution (ISIL) data element (4.2.3). The ILL borrowing institution (ISIL) data element and the alternative ILL borrowing institution data element (4.2.25) are mutually exclusive. 4.2.12 ILL borrowing transaction number The ILL borrowing transaction number data element is used to identify an ILL transaction. The ILL borrowing transaction number is assigned by the ILL transaction processing system and encoded by the lending institution to identify an interlibrary loan transaction. The structure of the number is locally defined. 4.2.13 GS1 product identifier The GS1 product identifier data element shall, if encoded, be used to store the GTIN-13 code of GS12). The Global Trade Item Number (GTIN) is a code that identifies the product and not the individual item. The GTIN-13 has 13 digits and is commonly seen on retail products in a bar code format and is (without the check digit) also an element of tags used in retail that follow the electronic product code scheme of GS1/EPC Global. The GTIN-13 code is commonly called the UPC code3) in the United States, and in other parts of the world it is known as the EAN-13 code4).
