3M har varit ledande inom biblioteksteknologien och utvecklat samt implementerat flera viktiga standarder som tillåter olika bibliotekssytem att fungera tillsammans.
Library Protocols
3M™ Standard Interchange Protocol
SIP is currently in its second revision called SIP 2.0. All major ILS vendors and major self-check vendors are SIP 2.0 compliant. SIP was developed by 3M so that its self-check stations could work with all the ILSs. It was then adopted by all the other major self-check manufacturers.
The NISO Circulation interchange protocol defines a communication protocol for interoperability among integrated library systems. The protocol was designed to support the following areas of the library operations: Interlibrary Loan, Direct Consortial Borrowing and Self Service. The NCIP standard, Z39.83 was approved by the National (U.S) Information Standards Organization in 2002.
3M continues its support of standard for the library industry, by continued participation in standards development, implementation, and promotion of standards.
