Who uses the ISO 15924 codes and why?
The ISO 15924 codes was devised for use by libraries, information services, and publishers to indicate language in the exchange of information, especially in computerized systems. The codes are expected to be widely used in the library community and may also be adopted for any application requiring the expression of language in coded form by terminologists and lexicographers. The codes codes are expected to be used in Internet applications (see question 15).
