Abstract: Rejects ideas that print will be replaced by electronic access to information. Librarianship should incorporate the useful aspects of electronic technology while maintaining what is useful and good about past and present services. Considers how to best adapt and enhance current structures to accomodate electronic documents and to use automation to improve access and delivery. Cataloguing and classification will remain central to information access. Examines the future of bibliographic standards in the future

Abstract: Enemies of cataloging today include ill-informed administrators, information scientists in library schools, and those who think that alternatives to vocabulary control and bibliographic architecture-such as Google-are better and cheaper than cataloging. Bibliographic control and cataloging should be at the heart of library education. An ideal library school is described.

Abstract

Defines authority control and vocabulary control and their place and utility in modern cataloguing. Discusses authority records and authority files and the use and purposes of each. Describes the creation of authority records and the sources from which authority data is collected. Discusses "metadata" schemes and their manifold and manifest inadequacies; points out the relationship of the Dublin Core to the MARC family of standards and the fact that both are framework standards-the first simplistic and naïve, the second complex and nuanced. Defines precision and recall as desiderata in indexing and retrieval schemes and relates them to authority control in catalogues. Discusses the problems involved in cataloguing electronic documents and resources and proposes an international program under the Universal Bibliographic Control (UBC) umbrella, using an international code of descriptive cataloguing, and based on an international name authority file. Calls for urgent action on these proposals.

Abstract

Describes the adoption of MARC and AARC standards since 1968. Considers an electronic library which unites catalogues, indexes, abstracts, bibliographies, the contents of documents and the documents themselves. This poses problems for bibliographic control in the regions of authority control and handling searchable full text. Explains why MARC would be suited to such a system. Propoeses a revised MARC and suggests a format for the accompanying manual. Considers improvements to AACR2

Abstract: Examines the achievements in bibliographic control of the last thirty years and the strides made toward Universal Bibliographic Control. Discusses the intended and unintended effects of three standards-the MARC format, ISBD, and AACR. Analyzes the types of resources in cyberspace to be organized and their similarities to and differences from documents librarians already know. Suggests strategies for solving the seemingly insoluble problems of cataloging the Internet and predicts how metadata will evolve.

Abstract: Libraries, their collections, and bibliographic control are essential components of the provision of access to recorded knowledge. Cataloging is a primary method of bibliographic control. Full or traditional cataloging is very expensive, but relying on keyword searching is inadequate. Alternatives for a solution to cataloging needs for electronic resources including the use of metadata and the Dublin Core are examined. Many questions exist regarding the long-term future of today's electronic documents. Recommendations are made for preserving recorded knowledge and information in the electronic resources for future generations

Abstract

Reviews the current economic and social situation, the negative effects on civilization of commercialized entertainment and computers, and concepts of society and discusses how regaining control in the areas of libraries and cataloguing can counter these negative influences. Focuses on the ability of cataloguers to continue to offer access to knowledge through integrated records of pan media collections and examines the questions of what should be recorded, standards and descriptive cataloguing. To maximize the abilities of computerized systems proposes an approach to subject indexing, classification, shelf arrangement and an overhaul of MARC

Abstract

The paper discusses the nature of values in general and the nature and utility of the values of librarianship. Delineates the changes that have occurred and are occurring in the wider world and the nature of change; also the importance of values in providing a framework for dealing with present and future change. Stresses the centrality of the human record to societal progress, the place of the human record in cultural heritage, and the central purpose of libraries in facilitating interaction with the human record and furthering the transmission of cultural heritage. Urges a turning away from the alien value systems of information technology, consumerism, materialism, and corporate management, and a consequent set of alliances between libraries and a wide range of cultural institutions and associations.
