The Infrastructure Standing Committee (formerly the Infrastructure Working Group) of the Partnership was established to develop an understanding of Shared Print program data needs, to explore the existing infrastructure capabilities, and to define recommendations and advocate for improvements. To facilitate those aims, the following Task Forces have been created: Resource Sharing, Matching Algorithms, Unique Materials (now sunsetted) and Discovery / Metadata.
