Investigation Results

Danish ISIL International Registry Status

According to https://slks.dk/english/work-areas/libraries-and-literature/library-standards/isil:

• Country Code: BO
• Registration Authority: National and University Library of Bosnia and Herzegovina
• Database Access: Listed as "Search" but no URL provided
• Status: No publicly accessible online database link available

Alternative Data: COBISS Library Directory

We successfully extracted the COBISS.BH Libraries Directory (https://bh.cobiss.net/en/libraries/):

• Total Libraries: 80
• Data Available: Name, City, COBISS Acronym, Homepage URL
• Missing Data: ISIL codes (not included in COBISS public listing)

The COBISS acronyms (e.g., NUBBIH, BUNSA, FFSA) are internal COBISS identifiers, NOT ISIL codes.

Next Steps to Obtain ISIL Codes

The ISIL registry for Bosnia and Herzegovina appears to be managed by NUBBiH but is not publicly accessible via a web search interface. Options for obtaining the complete ISIL database:

1. Direct Contact: Email NUBBiH directly

   • General: ured.direktora@nub.ba
   • Phone: +387 33 275 312 / +387 33 275 350
   • Website: https://nub.ba
   • Request: Full list of Bosnia ISIL codes or access to searchable database

2. ISIL International Registry Contact:

   • Email: ISIL@slks.dk (Danish Agency for Culture and Palaces)
   • Request Bosnia ISIL database or direct contact for Bosnian ISIL registry

3. Check Individual COBISS Records:

   • Some library records in COBISS may contain ISIL codes in their metadata
   • Would require individual lookup for each of the 80 libraries
   • COBISS search: https://plus.cobiss.net/cobiss/bh/bs/bib/search
