BNC's sister organization in the United States is the&nbs= p;Book Industry Study Group (BISG). Bot= h organizations actively try to coordinate their certification and standard= s programs with each other. This coordination has led to the wide US accept= ance of BNC's Bronze Template spreadsheet as a basis for data exchange.
Moreover, BNC & the BISG created the Best Practices for Pro= duct Metadata. A comprehensive and useful resource for ONIX beginners = or those fresh to ONIX 3.0, it contains:
A breakdown of ONIX blocks, highlighting what pieces of metadata are inc= luded within each
Use cases for each composite
Identification of mandatory tags/pieces of information
