This standard was originally published in 1972. In this revision few more frequency notations which are commonly used havebeen added and obsolete onehave been deleted. The frequency of periodical publications is generally denoted by such descriptive terms as daily, weekly, ! monthly, quarterly, annually, etc. In normal practice, this is adequate and convenient, but some of the descriptive terms, such as, hi-weekly, hi-monthly and semi-monthly lead to confhsion. To overcome this lack of precision, in denoting the ffequency of a publication, the UNESCO had suggested that inthe preparation of anational list of periodicals, the frequency khould be denoted by a number indicating the number of issues in a year. In this standard a simple notation is given, which will not only denote the frequency of a publication precisely but also give information about the number of months for which a volume runs. Examples have been given inTable 1to illustrate the use of frequency notation. Frequency notation will be of use in directory of periodical publications and such other lists and would be of help in recognizing the frequency of periodical publications easily. Use of tlequency notation ,onthe cover or bibliographical strip of a periodical publication will alsobe helpful to readers and inbibliographical work.
