- Abstract
- Contends that quality in a catalogue is crucially related to its capability to deliver the services it is intended to provide: enabling a user to find a book of which the author, title or subject is known; and to show what the library has be a given author or on a given subject or in a given kind of literature. Describes changes in recent years which have implications for the choice of a retrieval system for library users. Discusses 2 types of problems experiences by users wanting to harness the potential of OPACs. These include: problems with the system itself. Describes the role of the cataloguer today which is essentially to interface the users with the retrieval system
