[: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; this includes electronic works produced by organizations approved by the Commission (see Article 8.6.2).

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 produced before 1986. To be published, a work produced before 1986 must have been produced on paper, by a printing method then conventional (such as letterpress, offset printing) or by hectographing or mimeographing.

8.5. Works produced after 1985 and before 2000. A work produced between 1985 and 2000 by a method other than conventional printing may be accepted as published within the meaning of the Code if

• 8.5.1. it meets the other requirements of this Article and is not excluded by the provisions of Article 9, and

• 8.5.2. contains a statement by the author that any new name or nomenclatural act within it is intended for public and permanent scientific record, and

• 8.5.3. contains a statement in words in the work itself that it is produced in an edition containing simultaneously obtainable copies.

8.6. Works produced after 1999 by a method that does not employ printing on paper. To be accepted as published within the meaning of the Code, a work produced after 1999 by a method other than printing on paper 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.

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 pre-empt intended publication in another work.
