Information and documentation. Glagolitic alphabet coded character set for bibliographic information interchange. | Status: Confirmed, Current

1 Scope This International Standard establishes a coded character set for the Glagolitic alphabet for use in bibliographic information interchange. The character set is intended for use with the Old Slavonic language. This International Standard contains code tables, and a combined legend for the Glagolitic alphabet showing each graphic character with its Cyrillic alphabet equivalent, its position in the code table, its name, and comments on its use.

NOTE — For the benefit of the users of this International Standard the order of the Glagolitic character set has been arranged to match the corresponding Basic Cyrillic character set for bibliographic use registered as number 37 in the ISO International Register1) and those of ISO 5427 registered as number 54 in the ISO International Register2). Furthermore, guidance on the use of some characters is given in annex A as additional information.
