National Bibliography Numbers (NBNs) are used by national libraries
and other organizations in order to identify resources in their
collections.  NBNs are usually applied to resources that are not
catered for by established (standard) identifier systems such as
International Standard Book Number (ISBN).

A Uniform Resource Name (URN) namespace for NBNs was established in
2001 in RFC 3188.  Since then, a number of European national
libraries have implemented URN:NBN-based systems.

This document replaces RFC 3188 and defines how NBNs can be supported
within the updated URN framework.  A revised namespace registration
(version 4) compliant to RFC 8141 is included.
