[Taxacom] Start of online early

[Lynn Raw]

While this is certainly correct for books the situation is different for serials as they can have the same ISSN for both digital and paper versions, at least that is my experience in the UK.

ISSNs are different for print and electronic versions. In the publishing world the medium matters (which is why ISBNs for hard- and paperback editions of books are different, for example). See http://issn.org/2-22638-ISSN-and-electronic-publications.php for more details.

Having multiple ISSNs for the "same" journal is a pain, of course, so now we have ISSN-Ls, which aim to collect all the different ISSNs for a journal, see http://issn.org/2-22637-What-is-an-ISSN-L.php

The http://issn.org website has more on these matters.
