Abstract

The very terms 'outsourcing' is seen by many cataloguing departments as a scary word. However, the term is used to mean different things by different people. It carries meanings ranging from traditionally outsourced activities to more recent outsourcing of entire functions, departments, or units. This article identifies long-accepted ways in which cataloguing departments have utilized outsourcing and differences and similarities between those practices and more recent outsourcing activities
