Publication date

The date of first publication of this product in the home market of the publisher named in PR.19 (that is, under the current ISBN or other identifier, as distinct from the date of first publication of the work, which may be given in <YearFirstPublished> on the next page). In advance information, this will be an expected date, which should be replaced by the actual date of publication when known. The date should be given as precisely as possible, but in early notifications a month and year are sufficient; and for backlist titles the year of publication is sufficient.

Note that in advance information this date must not be interpreted as the date when the product will first be available in a territory other than the publisher’s home market. See the <SupplyDetail> and <MarketRepresentation> composites, Groups PR.24 and PR.25, for other market-specific detail.

Optional and non-repeating.

Format Four, six or eight numeric digits (YYYY, YYYYMM, or YYYYMMDD).
