- Abstract
- Defines the virtual catalogue as a bibliographic database built up from a variety of sources, but in which differences between those sources and the means of accessing individual records from particular files are largely invisible to the user. Discusses the issue of common standards for bibliographic records in the virtual catalogue based on the author's experience of the UK Copyright Shared Cataloguing Programme. Considers the problem of deviations from standards, and suggests that in the are of the virtual catalogue present standards should be reconsidered and modified as appropriate. Access, display of records, and searching techniques are 3 areas that need such reconsideration. Recommends greater cooperation with the book trade in order to maximize the use of published information
