Description	A `Publisher` represents a collection of subscriptions. Like all OSID objects, a `Publisher` is identified by its `Id` and any persisted references should use the `Id`. Like all `OsidObjects`, `Publisher` is managed by its `OsidSessions` and may not be accessed by concurrent processing threads.
Method	getPublisherRecord
Description	Gets the publisher record corresponding to the given `Publisher` record `Type`. This method is used to retrieve an object implementing the requested record. The `publisherRecordType` may be the `Type` returned in `getRecordTypes()` or any of its parents in a `Type` hierarchy where `hasRecordType(publisherRecordType)` is `true`.
Parameters	`osid.type.Type`	`publisherRecordType`	the type of publisher record to retrieve
Return	`osid.subscription.records.PublisherRecord`		the publisher record
Errors	NULL_ARGUMENT		`publisherRecordType` is `null`
	OPERATION_FAILED		unable to complete request
	UNSUPPORTED		`hasRecordType(publisherRecordType)` is `false`
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
