    Abstract
    The Serials Cooperative Cataloging Program (SCCTP) is reviewed from the standpoint of a library educator. Although the demand for copy catalogers has declined in the era of digital information, the demand for original catalogers has remained constant due, in part, to the growth in titles in different media formats and different languages. Additionally linking to information housed externally or internally and embedding metadata tags for resource discovery are among the new tasks for organizers of information in the Internet era. Increasingly professional organizations are filling the need for continuing education and training for advanced-level catalogers. This article examines the SCCTP as a model for continuous professional development and concludes it is adaptable more generally.

    Abstract
    Displaying aspects of "aboutness" by means of non-verbal representations, such as notations, symbols, or icons, or through rich visual displays, such as those of topic maps, can facilitate meaning-making, putting information in context, and situating it relative to other information. As the design of displays of web-enabled information has struggled to keep pace with a bourgeoning body of digital content, increasingly innovative approaches to organizing search results have warranted greater attention. Using Worldmapper as an example, this paper examines cartograms - a derivative of the data map which adds dimensionality to the geographic positioning of information - as one approach to representing and managing subject content, and to tracking the diffusion of knowledge across place and time.

    Abstract
    Reports results of a 1992 research study to examine the place of 9 general categories of non book materials (audiovisual materials) in Canadian libraries including: the degree to which non book materials have penetrated library collections; the percentage of catalogues collections; and the extent to which the AACR2R has been applied in the cataloguing. Analyzes the 336 survey responses, revealing both that non book materials have achieved a place in library collections and that improvements in their catalogue access are needed

    Abstract
    Reports the results of a national survey of Canadian libraries to determine the pattern of use of AACR2. 1988 revision (AACR2R), cataloguing rules for different formats of library materials in various sizes and types of libraries. Questionnaires were used to explore: the nature and frequency of use of the code; the preferred publication formats for acquiring AACR2R; and the contribution of records to a bibliographic utility or network (in house or external) database. Describes and summarizes the results, providing a baseline profile of AACR2R users and usage

    Abstract
    Reports a study of Canadian libraries to determine the extent of the application of codes and standards for bibliographic cataloguing records for facilitating the sharing of cataloguing records. The research examined results of a 1992 national survey of Canadian libraries to determine the pattern of use of AACR2R; cataloguing rules for different formats of library materials in various sizes and types of libraries. Analysis of data suggests that smaller libraries with collection sizes of less than 100.000 volumes were less likely than larger libraries to be record contributors. Those cataloguing agencies that were contributing to potentially derivable copy tended to use AACR2R in the majority of cases, perhaps suggesting that the quality of original records being created by self selected respondents to the survey were largely to current standard

    Abstract
    While directions for the use of "germane terms for the physical medium of the work" appeared in the 1964 Rules for Descriptive Cataloging in the Library of Congress: Phonorecords, most libraries choosing to integrate nonbook materials in their collections, either colour-coded their catalogue cards, or added two-digit media codes to call numbers. The first formalized list of "general material designations" (gmds) - placed immediately following the title proper as an early warning device - was published in 1978 in the second edition of the Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules. Since their introduction they have been controversial as this investigation of the evolution of material designations explores.
