    Abstract
    Three factors are likely to force dramatic changes in the libraries of the future. They are the increase in electronic publishing, the digitising of conventional library materials, and the Internet which is creating a second information revolution. New concepts are needed for cataloguing functions in the Internet environment. Cataloguing, now a pre-coordinate function should shift to a post-coordinate activity. Authority control should become an activity of the searching stage rather than the cataloguing stage. Uniform titles will be needed as one of the linking mechanisms. The value of ISBD needs to be justified. Issues connected with the Internet and search engines are explored. A scenario for the Catalogue 2000 is given that envisions the cataloguers' aims being the inclusion of library catalogue material that is relevant but not necessarily in the library.

    Abstract
    Describes the technical aspects of a feasibility study to test a new concept in bibliographic control based on the manifestations of a work. Conventional catalogues are based on the main entry principle which follows from the concept that there should be 1 main entry for each work. The Bradford OPAC project, at Bradford University, UK, aimed to develop a new type of hierarchical bibliographic record structure to cope with the problem of applying the main entry principle to multiple cataloguing records which are manisfestations of the same work. The project involved the storage of MARC data sets of bibliographic records, taken from the Bradford University Library OPAC and the OCLC WorldCat database, in a relational database (MS Access) on a PC. This was then used for an experimental Windows based OPAC, to evaluate the overall success of the idea and any problem areas identified with a view to a more substantial study. The project also aimed to test whether intelligent and responsive software, using a graphic user interface and based on sets of manifestations, could provide a better route to information than a display based on a single work

    Abstract
    Reviews the 20 years' evolution and development of the USBC, as a means of overcoming the weaknesses inherent in the ISBN, from its first proposal in 1974. Briefly describes the various phases of USBC's development, including: fisrt extensive testing (1977-1979); first research project (1980-82); work performed on USBC as part of proposals for the setting up of the United Kingdom Library Database System (UKLDS) (1982-84), in which USBC was to be used to create a merged retrospective database of MARC and non MARC cataloguing records; the DOCMATCH Projects, using the USBC with periodical articles (1987-89); refining of USBC by means of expert systems (1986-87); use of USBC to clean up the BLCMP database (1989-91); and the QUALCAT Project, to set up a large bibliographic database integrating records from different databases and using USBC for merging, cleaning and control and to develop an expert system to select the best record from a number of duplicates (1989-91). Reports briefly on the project, undertaken by Bradford University, Dept. of Computing, UK, to explore the application of USBC technology to the British Library Document Supply Centre's computerized interloans system. Concludes that, although the USBC has never achieved the status of an accepted standard, it has more than made for this by demonstrating its adaptibility and power in a range of situation requiring an ability to detect duplicate records and to merge and combine files
