- Abstract
- Typographical errors in bibliographic records can cause retrieval problems in online catalogs. This study examined one hundred typographical errors in records in the OCLC WorldCat database. The local catalogs of five libraries holding the items described by the bibliographic records with typographical errors were searched to determine whether each library had corrected the errors. The study found that only 35.8 percent of the errors had been corrected. Knowledge of copy cataloging error rates can help underscore the importance of quality data in bibliographic utilities and, further, can serve as an indication to libraries whether they need to pay more attention to correcting types in the copy cataloging process.

- Abstract
- In bibliographic records, catalogers use the error indicators [sic] or [i.e.] with a correction to indicate that a preexisting error was noted on the item being cataloged that did occur not during the cataloging process. This article analyzes this practice and provides examples of the recent use of the error indicators. The article also suggests how the use of the error indicators in bibliographic records might be improved and describes aspects of their use that merit further study.

- Abstract
- Magda Heiner-Freiling argued for assignment of extra DDC numbers for improved access, including table numbers and other parts of numbers as well as fully built numbers, and for coding to identify component parts of built numbers. Changes to the MARC 21 Bibliographic format that support her approach are found in MARC Proposal No. 2008-01 Representation of the Dewey Decimal Classification (DDC) System in MARC 21 formats. The new 083 Additional Dewey Decimal Classification Number field is used for assignment of extra Dewey numbers for improved access. The new 085 Synthesized Classification Number Components field is used to identify component parts of built Dewey numbers. This paper uses specific examples to show how the new fields can help improve access.
