The National Information Standards Organization (NISO) recently revised the Open Discovery Initiative Recommended Practice (), which outlines best practices for discovery service providers. It streamlines the process by which libraries, content providers, and discovery service providers work together; defines models for "fair" linking; and suggests usage statistics that should be collected for libraries and for content providers. The recommendations in this document, created by members of the Open Discovery Initiative Standing Committee, enable libraries, discovery service providers, and content providers to work together to the full extent of their abilities – thus providing an effective and rich experience to end users.
