Excerpts from the ISO Draft International Standard on bibliographic references to electronic documents is at: http://www.nlc-bnc.ca/iso/tc46sc9/standard/690-2e.htm

The Committee (ISO/TC46/SC 9), which developed this draft standard and which represents over 100 countries, is composed of the national standards organizations of 21 countries including Canada, South Africa, the U.K., and the United States.

The ISO/TC 46/SC 9 maintains liaison with organizations such as IFLA, ISSN and CCE (Commission of the European Communities). The Secretariat for ISO/TC 46/SC 9 is provided by the National Library of Canada. The draft standard, ISO DIS 690-2, should be published as an International Standard later in 1996.

The Chronicle of Higher Education, January 12, 1996, page A18, Cyberspace Citations mentions the work of this committee.

A copy of the full draft standards is available from an individual's national standards organization. A directory of these is at: http://www.iso.ch/addresse/membodies.html
