Final Specification |
PRISM is described in a set of formal, modularized documents that, taken together, represent “the PRISM Specification.” Together these documents comprise the PRISM Documentation Package.
Documents in the PRISM Documentation Package may contain both normative and non-normative material; normative material describes element names, attributes, formats, and the contents of elements that is required in order for content or systems to comply with the PRISM Specification. Non-normative material explains, expands on, or clarifies the normative material, but it does not represent requirements for compliance. Normative material in the PRISM Documentation Package is explicitly identified as such; any material not identified as normative can be assumed to be non-normative.
The key words "MUST," "MUST NOT," "REQUIRED," "SHALL," "SHALL NOT," "SHOULD," "SHOULD NOT," "RECOMMENDED," "MAY," and "OPTIONAL" in this document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC-2119]. The PRISM Specification also uses the normative term, “STRONGLY ENCOURAGES,” which should be understood as a requirement equivalent to “MUST” in all but the most extraordinary circumstances.
Capitalization is significant; lower-case uses of the key words are intended to be interpreted in their normal, informal, English language way.
The PRISM Documentation Package has been reorganized and some specifications renamed to more accurately reflect the nature of each specification module. The PRISM documentation package includes the following specifications and documents:
This document provides compliance specification.

In 2010, Idealliance developed a series of specifications collectively known as the PRISM Source Vocabulary. The use case for PSV is to encode semantically rich content for transformation and delivery to any platform. This Specification is made up of a modular documentation package that builds on PRISM 3.0 and HTML5. Over time new modules may be added to the documentation package. The documentation package for PSV, PRISM Source Vocabulary Specification Version 1.0 consists of:
Document |
Description |
PRISM Source Vocabulary Specification Overview [PSVSO] |
The Introduction to the PRISM Source Vocabulary provides an introduction and a non-technical overview of the PRISM Source Vocabulary. |
PRISM Source Vocabulary Specification [PSVS] |
The PRISM Source Vocabulary Specification defines semantically rich for source metadata and content markup that can be transformed and served to a wide variety of output devices including eReaders, mobile tablet devices, smart phones and print. |
PRISM Source Vocabulary Markup Specification [PSVMS] |
The PSV Markup Specification documents the XML tags in the PSV namespace that are used to encode XML Source Content. |
While PRISM is primarily a metadata specification, it also includes some XML schemas that define encoding of specific kinds of content for publication and interchange. The PRISM schemas include:
• Contracts_xsd.zip contains a schema that can be used to encode publication contracts.
• Crafts_xsd.zip contains a schema that can be used to encode crafts.
• Image_xsd.zip contains a schema that can be used to encode images.
• PAM_xsd.zip contains a schema that can be used to encode a PRISM aggregator message.
• pamW_xsd.zip contains a schema that can be used to encode a PRISM aggregator message for Web content.
• pamP_xsd.zip contains a schema that can be used to encode a PRISM aggregator/distributor message package.
• PSV_xsd.zip contains a schema that can be used to encode content in PRISM Source Vocabulary.
• Recipe_xsd.zip contains a schema that can be used to encode recipes.
• Rights_xsd.zip contains a schema that can be used to encode usage rights.
PRISM has defined 38 controlled vocabularies using PRISM controlled vocabulary markup. See The PRISM Controlled Vocabulary prism-cvs.html

In order to assist implementers develop a PSV-based federated content management solution, the nextPub Working Group is providing an XML Schema (XSD) that can serve as the basis for the design of a PSV content repository.
Note: The PSV CM schema is not designed for tagging content. It is provided simply to serve as a basis for the design of a content repository. Metadata building blocks from this schema can be combined with HTML5 by publishers who wish to develop a hybrid PSV metadata and content tagging schema.
Because PSV is a flexible framework, it supports many different use case scenarios. A different schema, using the PSV metadata fields and content encoding can be developed for each different use case. In order to assist PSV implementers, the nextPub Working Group is planning to provide a number of XML Schemas (XSDs) to support common use cases including tagging an article and transmitting articles to content aggregators.
The purpose of this document is to describe the basic metadata elements that the PRISM Working Group has defined and included in the PRISM Usage Rights namespace. All of section 4 of this document is normative.
Note: Additional examples of PRISM Usage Rights are documented in the PRISM Usage Rights Guide [RIGHTSGUIDE].
Note: This document describes element models and provides examples for all PRISM profiles. In addition, Profile 1 PRISM (well formed XML, with no requirement for RDF), is described in Guide to PRISM Usage Rights V. 3.0 [RIGHTSGUIDE].
The PRISM Usage Rights Metadata Specification has replaced any recommendation to use the Distribution Channel Controlled Vocabulary with the new PRISM Aggregation Type Controlled Vocabulary and separated the identification of delivery platform into a separate platform attribute. See The PRISM Controlled Vocabularies Specification [PRISMCVS] Version 3.0 for documentation about the PRISM Aggregation Type CV and the PRISM Platform CV.
The PRISM Rights Language (PRL) has been deprecated with the publication of this PRISM Usage Rights Metadata Specification.
Rights elements within the PRISM namespace have also been deprecated with the publication of this PRISM Usage Rights Metadata Specification.
PRISM maintains a single rights element from the Dublin Core Namespace. Although seldom used, this element remains useful for the expression of simple rights for those that do not need to provide more detailed rights information. The Working Group will retain dc:rights as an element of the PRISM metadata set. It will not be documented within the new PRISM Rights Guide and will remain a standalone element.
Other Dublin Core and PRISM rights elements have been deprecated from this specification with the publication of Version 3.0.
For the first release of PRISM, the PRISM WG put only the most commonly-needed rights elements into the PRISM namespace. Because of the considerable activity around specifying rights and permissions at that time, the PRISM Working Group could not recommend an existing standard to follow, as they were able to do with XML, RDF, and Dublin Core. Therefore, the Working Group simply defined a small, simple, extensible language for expressing common rights and permissions known as the PRISM Rights Language (PRL).
Today, the landscape has changed considerably. A predominant rights description metadata set for magazine content has yet to emerge. On the digital image side, considerable work has been done by the PLUS Coalition. In addition, new media technologies have complicated matters, as rights are now tied to delivery platforms and distribution channels beyond print. The PRISM Working Group launched a rights committee in late 2007 whose goal was to update the rights portions of the PRISM Specification. The result of that work is the new pur: namespace, which will supplant the existing PRISM Rights Language (PRL) namespace and some elements within the prism: namespace.
The PRISM Usage Rights Namespace (prism:usageRights) seeks to aid publishers in the description and tracking of usage rights metadata. Like the PRL namespace, it does not serve to provide rights enforcement. The elements in this namespace capture publisher information regarding permissions, restrictions, recipients, rights owners/agents, and content warnings. There are several elements that specifically pertain to rights surrounding image manipulation. The breadth of the PRISM Usage Rights Namespace greatly surpasses that previously supplied by the PRISM Rights Language (PRL).
The recommended namespace for PRISM Usage Rights is:
xmlns:pur=“http://prismstandard.org/namespaces/pur/3.0/”
All three PRISM profiles are documented in this section. First Profile #1 (XML) is documented. The documentation for the XML-only profile includes a field that indicates whether this element is included in the PRISM Aggregator Message. If the element is included in PAM, please refer to Guide to the PRISM Aggregator Message [PAMGUIDE] for more detailed information about the use of the element in the context of the XML PAM message.
PRISM Profile #2 (RDF/XML) is also documented in this section. In combining XML with RDF, there is far greater flexibility in tagging than we are used to when we define XML elements and attributes with an XML DTD. The remainder of this section contains the most likely element/attribute models for PRISM Profile# 2. Other PRISM Profile #2 models are possible based on the interaction between XML and RDF.
PRISM Profile #3 (XMP) is also documented in this section. The documentation concentrates on the property and container values for the XMP field to provide information required to develop an XMP schema to implement PRISM in the XMP environment. Note that XMP can be particularly useful in extending the capability of encoding multimedia objects with PRISM metadata.
The PRISM Usage Rights Platform attribute describes the platform for content distribution. The attribute is used for the following elements in the PRISM Usage Rights Namespace [PRISMURNS]:
• pur:restrictions
• pur:permissions
• pur:copyright
• pur:creditLine
• pur:embargoDate
• pur:exlusivityEndDate
• pur:expirationDate
• pur:optionEndDate
• pur:adultContentWarning
PRISM recognizes that distribution channels will frequently be publisher specific, and therefore did not see fit to constrain users to a controlled vocabulary. Best practice is for each publisher to define their own controlled vocabulary for distribution channel and communicate that vocabulary to all content recipients.
The PRISM Usage Rights Distribution Channel attribute describes a type of content recipient or a method of reuse for content distribution. The attribute is used for the following elements in the PRISM Usage Rights Namespace [PRISMURNS]:
• pur:permissions
• pur:restrictions
• pur:creditLine
• pur:embargoDate
• pur:exlusivityEndDate
• pur:expirationDate
• pur:optionEndDate
• pur:adultContentWarning
PRISM recognizes that distribution channels will frequently be publisher specific, and therefore did not see fit to constrain users to a controlled vocabulary. Best practice is for each publisher to define their own controlled vocabulary for distribution channel and communicate that vocabulary to all content recipients.
One method to define a distribution channel controlled vocabulary is to base the vocabulary on the PRISM Aggregation Type Controlled Vocabulary combined with regionalization terms such as domestic, international, and internal. See The PRISM Controlled Vocabularies Specification [PRISMCVS] Version 3.0 for documentation about PRISM Aggregation Types.

Definition |
Earliest date (potentially including time) the resource may be made available to users or customers according to the rights agreement or to a clause in the rights agreement. |
Occurrence |

Comment |
It is common practice to embargo information – provide it to publishers in advance under an agreement that it will not be published until the embargo expires at some specific date and time. After that the information may be released to the outside world.
The embargoDate is not a property of the resource as much as it is a property of the agreement under which the resource is provided. Therefore, this element is considered to be a rights-based element.
Best practice is to use the W3C dateTime format. PRISM uses a typed literal in an XSD environment to enforce the W3C date format.
If this element is used more than one time, each instance of the element should be qualified by distribution channel.
Best practice for the distributionChannel attribute is for the publisher to define a controlled vocabulary defining relevant distribution channels. If distribution channel is not specified, consider the data applicable to all distribution channels. |

Occurrence |

Comment |
Since the expirationDate is a property of a rights agreement, not of the resource itself, this element is a rights-based element. This is not to be confused with killDate, which is not tied to a rights agreement.
This element differs from pur:exclusivityEndDate in that the expiration date indicates when a resource must be removed from availability, not the expiration of exclusive availability.
If this element is used more than one time each instance of the element should be qualified by distribution channel.
Best practice is to use the W3C dateTime format. PRISM uses a typed literal in an XSD environment to enforce the W3C date format.
Best practice for the distributionChannel attribute is for the publisher to define a controlled vocabulary defining relevant distribution channels. If distribution channel is not specified, consider the data applicable to all distribution channels.
Note: PRISM will deprecate the prism:expirationDate element in favor of the pur:expirationDate element in PRISM 3.0. Recommended best practice is to use the element in this namespace. |

When horizontal and vertical maximum usage dimensions are specified they must include a unit of measure specific to the platform on which the publication will be delivered. When the publication platform is web, for example, the unit should be pixels.
Text describing the size restriction may be specified in place of exact maximum dimensions. For example, the restriction may be “full page” or “spread”.
Note: PRISM recommends against the use of the #other value allowed in the PRISM Platform controlled vocabulary. |

Option End Date |
Identifier |
pur:optionEndDate |
Definition |
The date (potentially including time) by which the resource must be used according to the rights agreement. |
Occurrence |
Occurs 0 or more times qualified by distribution channel |
Comment |
If this element is used more than one time each instance of the element should be qualified by distribution channel.
Note: Best practice is to use the W3C dateTime format. PRISM uses a typed literal in an XSD environment to enforce the W3C date format.
Best practice for the distributionChannel attribute is for the publisher to define a controlled vocabulary defining relevant distribution channels. If distribution channel is not specified, consider the data applicable to all distribution channels. |

Comment |
If this element is used more than one time each instance of the element should be qualified by the distribution channel. Note that a usage fee may be tied to each distribution channel using the permissions element by combining the distributionChannel= attribute with the usageFee= attribute on the permissions element.

Comment |
Recommended practice is to use the ISO 3166-1 country codes or a publisher-defined set of country codes for Country Code.
The values used for the attribute code could be the same as the codes used for prism:usageRights:permissions. In this case, users should take care to ensure that the code can be properly interpreted as a restriction.
