Scope note

Text

This class comprises activities that consist of publishing the first issue of a given continuing resource.

An instance of Z6 Starting of Publication is part of the instance of F30 Publication Event that realises the entire continuing resource, and it is associated with it through property P116 starts (is started by) (i.e., the starting point of the instance of Z6 Starting of Publication coincides with the starting point of the instance of F30 Publication Event).

This class and Z7 Ending of Publication are not declared as disjoint, as the publication of the first issue of a continuing resource can also be the publication of its last issue, in cases where only one issue of a continuing resource was ever published. If no other issue of a continuing resource is published after the first issue, then both the instance of Z6 Starting of Publication and the instance of Z7 Ending of Publication P114 [are] equal in time to the instance of F30 Publication Event. As a matter of fact, the same event is then an instance of all three classes.
