Title

Recat vs. Recon of serials : a problem for shared cataloging

Source

Cataloging and classification quarterly. 10(1990) no.4, S.51-68

Year

1990

Abstract

Retrospective conversion of serials cataloging is discussed and compared with professional recataloging. A study of 357 recataloged titles illustrates problems with serials records available on the national bibliographic utilities. During retrospective conversions, libraries choose those records which best suit their needs, but this process does not enhance the utility databases. A possible technological solution is proposed.
