Benefits of registering with the ISNI registry
A standardized method for identifying creators and rightsholders around the world
Registration with the ISNI registry allows a unique identifier to be assigned to each creator of a work, including to the author's pseudonym or publisher's imprint, in the form of a unique number.
Differentiate frequently occurring names and surnames
Having a digital identifier makes it easier to identify which work belongs to which person in the case of same name spellings.
Consolidate different spellings of the author's name under one identifier
Linking different spellings of a name to an ID number makes it easier to find and identify the original author of a work.
Streamline the process of collecting and paying royalties
Different registries can exchange information about a particular author or rightsholder. Registering a name or pseudonym with the ISNI registry allows for effective management of rights internationally and in the digital environment.
