How does this affect ITIL v3 core publications?
In my experience with ITIL v2, the TSO (AXELOS official publisher) slows down the production and distribution of the publications as demand for these products also decreases. Eventually, it is only possible to purchase digital copies or second-hand hard copies. I would expect the same to happen with the ITIL v3 publications.
How is the ITIL 4 library structured?
There are 6 Core publications currently available along with 34 digital
publications relating to specific practices. There are also a number of other related materials, such as whitepapers and case studies available via My ITIL and My AXELOS online subscriptions.
Core publications:
1. ITIL 4 Foundation
2. ITIL 4 Specialist: Create, Deliver and Support (CDS)
3. ITIL 4 Specialist: Drive Stakeholder Value (DSV)
4. ITIL 4 Specialist: Direct, Plan and Improve (DPI)
5. ITIL 4 Specialist: High Velocity IT (HVIT)
6. ITIL 4 Leader: Digital and IT Strategy (DITS)
ITIL 4 Practices Publications:
All the 34 practices recommended in the ITIL 4 Foundation core publication are documented in more detail in specific digital publications. These are currently distributed by the TSO or via the My ITIL subscription service (by AXELOS).
Currently anyone passing their ITIL 4 Foundation exam is entitled to the first year of My ITIL subscription for free.
Please note that some conditions apply and this offer may change, see details on our website.
Publications miss some of the details we had in the ITIL v3 core publications.
Ideally, the professionals reading these publications have the necessary level of experience to use the information effectively and with an agile mindset.
