The OCLC Developer Network website has a posting about this [1]:
<quote>As a follow up to our March
2016
announcement<https://www.oclc.org/developer/news/2015/change-to-xid-services.en.html>
to
continue to offer Identifier Services (xID) without any changes to the
services or data, OCLC has made the official decision to retire all xID
services on 1 July 2018. These services no longer comply with OCLC’s
heightened security standards and users continue to experience
diminishing value as supporting data becomes further and further out of
date. This means that users will need to take action to remove the
following web services from all applications:
* xISBN<http://xisbn.worldcat.org/xisbnadmin/doc/api.htm>
* xISSN<http://xissn.worldcat.org/xissnadmin/doc/api.htm>
* xOCLCnum<http://xisbn.worldcat.org/xisbnadmin/xoclcnum/api.htm>
At this time, we are not aware of alternative services to consider but
want to provide users with as much notice as possible, so they can
conduct research and make plans to remove these xID services prior to
their retirement on 1 July 2018. If you have any questions or concerns,
please contact Tony Chirakos<mailto:[email protected]>. </quote>
