'''8.6. Works produced after 1999 by a method that does not employ printing on paper.''' For a work produced after 1999 by a method other than printing on paper to be accepted as published within the meaning of the Code, it must satisfy one of the following criteria:

 . '''8.6.1.''' If the method produces physical copies, the work must contain a statement that copies (in the form in which it is published) have been deposited in at least five major publicly accessible libraries that are identified by name in the work itself.

 . '''8.6.2.''' If the method involves distribution by means of electronic signals (e.g., via the World Wide Web), the work must be distributed and permanently archived by an organization approved by the Commission.

 . ('''Comment:''' Do we need to explain what is involved in such approval or how to check on what organisations are approved? Also, it is elusive (to me) what exactly "permanently archived" means. Thomas Pape)
'''8.6. New methods of publication and archiving.''' The Commission may issue Declarations to clarify whether new or unconventional methods of production, distribution, formatting, or archiving can produce works that are published in the meaning of the Code.

[:Chapter3:Chapter 3: Criteria of Publication]


Article 8. What constitutes published work. A work is to be regarded as published for the purposes of zoological nomenclature if it complies with the requirements of this Article and is not excluded by the provisions of Article 9.

8.1. Criteria to be met. A work must satisfy the following criteria:

  • 8.1.1. it must be issued for the purpose of providing a public and permanent scientific record,

  • 8.1.2. it must be obtainable, when first issued, free of charge or by purchase, and

  • 8.1.3. it must have been produced in an edition containing simultaneously obtainable copies by a method that assures numerous identical and durable copies, or by a method that assures

    • 8.1.3.1 numerous identical and durable copies (see Article 8.4), or

    • 8.1.3.2. widely accessible electronic copies with fixed content and format (e.g. PDF/A, ISO Standard 19005-1:2005) (see Article 8.5).

8.2. Publication may be disclaimed. A work that contains a statement to the effect that it is not issued for public and permanent scientific record, or for purposes of zoological nomenclature, is not published within the meaning of the Code.

8.3. Names and acts may be disclaimed. If a work contains a statement to the effect that all or any of the names or nomenclatural acts in it are disclaimed for nomenclatural purposes, the disclaimed names or acts are not available. Such a work may be a published work (i.e. taxonomic information in it may have the same nomenclatural status as the taxonomic information in a published but suppressed work: see Article 8.7.1).

8.4. Works issued as physical copies. Works issued as physical copies are subject to the following criteria:

  • 8.4.1. Works printed on paper. After 2009, the only acceptable means of producing physical copies is by printing on paper using ink or toner.

  • 8.4.2. Works on CD-ROM or DVD. To be considered published, a work on CD-ROM or DVD

    • 8.4.2.1. must have been issued after 1999 and before 2010, and

    • 8.4.2.2. must contain a statement naming at least 5 major publicly accessible libraries in which copies of the CD-ROM or DVD were to have been deposited.

8.5. Works issued and distributed electronically. To be considered published, a work issued and distributed electronically must

  • 8.5.1. have been issued after 2009,

  • 8.5.2. state the date of publication in the work itself, and

  • 8.5.3. be archived with an organization other than the publisher in a manner compliant with ISO standard 14721:2003 for an Open Archive Information System (OAIS), or the successors to that standard. (For documentation of the location of the archive, see Article 10.9.2.1.)

    • 8.5.3.1. The archiving organization’s website must provide a means to determine which works are contained in the archive.

    • 8.5.3.2. The archiving organization must have permanent or irrevocable license to make the work accessible should the publisher no longer do so.

    • 8.5.3.3. If it is found that the work was not deposited in an archive within one year after the work’s stated date of publication, or that after the publisher or its successor no longer supports distribution of a work it cannot be recovered from an archive, the case must be referred to the Commission for a ruling on the availability of any names and nomenclatural acts contained in the work.

8.6. New methods of publication and archiving. The Commission may issue Declarations to clarify whether new or unconventional methods of production, distribution, formatting, or archiving can produce works that are published in the meaning of the Code.

8.7. Status of suppressed works. A work that has been suppressed for nomenclatural purposes by the Commission by use of the plenary power [Art. 81] and that satisfies the provisions of this Article remains published within the meaning of the Code, unless the Commission has ruled that it is to be treated as not having been published;

  • 8.7.1. such a work remains available as a source of published descriptions and illustrations, but not as a work in which a name or nomenclatural act (such as the fixation of a name-bearing type, or the determination of precedence under Article 24.2) can be made available.

Recommendation 8A. Wide dissemination. Authors have a responsibility to ensure that new scientific names, nomenclatural acts, and information likely to affect nomenclature are made widely known. This responsibility is most easily discharged by publication in appropriate scientific journals or well-known monographic series and by ensuring that new names proposed by them are entered into the Zoological Record. This is most easily achieved by sending a copy of the work to the Zoological Record, published by BIOSIS U.K.

Recommendation 8B. Desirability of works on paper. Authors and publishers are strongly urged to ensure that a new scientific name or nomenclatural act is first published in a work printed on paper.

Recommendation 8C. Public accessibility of published works. Copies of published works which contain a new scientific name or nomenclatural act should be permanently conserved in libraries whose works are publicly accessible (but for the deposition of works produced after 1999 by a method other than printing on paper see Article 8.6).

Recommendation 8D. Responsibilities of authors, editors and publishers. Authors, editors and publishers have a responsibility to ensure that works containing new names, nomenclatural acts, or information likely to affect nomenclature are self-evidently published within the meaning of the Code. Editors and publishers should ensure that works contain the date of publication, and information about where they may be obtained.

Recommendation 8E. Inclusion of disclaimers. Editors and publishers should avoid including new names and the information that might appear to make the names available, or new nomenclatural acts, in works that are not issued for public and permanent scientific record (such as pre-symposium abstracts, or notices of papers to be delivered at a meeting). They should ensure that such documents contain a disclaimer (see Article 8.2), so that new names published for the first time therein do not enter zoological nomenclature unintentionally and preempt intended publication in another work.
