Abstract

The Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules, second edition, aim at universal applicability. Some problems brought forth through the translation process and the laws in the workability of rules in a nonEnglish working language are examined. This leads to acknowledge the failure of AACR2 to acquire an international adaptability. Enquiry into the needs of potential users is advised.

Abstract

Bibliographic control does not differ in substance from one type of material to another. Therefore it is not possible to separate the bibliographic control of music materials entirely from the larger domain of bibliographic control activity. The literature of music librarianship is examined for relevant theoretical explanations. Specific problems of description and access are used to show that, in general, the requirements for bibliographic control of music fit neatly into the theoretical structure for all bibliographic control. The primary purpose of descriptive cataloging of musical objects is to identify and differentiate among objects in a library collection. Where the concept of responsibility is relevant, access is provided through the names of composers or performers. Systematic access is provided through co-equal facets: medium, manifestation, and form.

Abstract

The bibliographic phase of the Pennsylvania Newspaper Project (PaNP) is described in terms of organization and procedures. During the first year of the PaNP, cataloging at five sites distributed geographically throughout Pennsylvania was implemented. Overall project direction is provided at the State Library of Pennsylvania and CONSER authentication for Pennsylvania newspaper cataloging is performed at the University of Pittsburgh (Pitt). The article emphasizes activities at the University of Pittsburgh and documents procedures and recommendations by the staff at Pitt. Unique complexities of cataloging newspapers and recording holdings information are examined. An innovative system of profiling has been developed to allow for the inclusion, into OCLC, of the holdings of small repositories and private individuals.

Abstract

Paper presented at the International Association of Sound Archives (IASA) Conference, Vienna, 1988, at the Cataloguing Committee's session. In making entries of edited audiovisual material there a two sets of rules in existence in West Germany both of which are described. Identifies 8 types of material for each of which there are prescribed cataloguing rules; the visual re-presentation for projection; film; multi-media; slide show with synchronised sound and commentary; sound recordings; group of games; and audiovisual material in microform.

Abstract

The method of integrating rules for nonbook materials with those for print materials in AACR2 is examined to see how well nonbook materials are handled and whether the treatment of print materials is affected. Both choice of entry rules and rules for description are examined to see whether their provisions are in accordance with the needs of users of these materials, and/or the patterns of publication and identification of these materials. Areas needing further research are identified.

Abstract

In cases where more than three authors share responsibility for the creation of a work, the so-called Rule of Three dictates that the catalog should provide added entry under only the first author named. This practlce discriminates unfairly against the authors whose names are not included and hampers those patrons who only recall the name of one or more of those authors overlooked by the catalog. Taking a historical perspective, this paper traces the origins of this Rule and exposes it as a form of censorship.

Abstract

A broad and diverse compendium of underutilized information is available in pamphlet format in the academic library. Its enhanced use is impeded by the lack of an effective means of catalog access. The traditional library practice of accessing pamphlets by a single subject heading assignment/arrangement greatly limits accessibility. The alternative of full cataloging regularly accorded books is generally provided only for selected pamphlets for reasons of cost. It is suggested that the provision of AACR2 first level of description may be a desirable and practical compromise between single subject assignment and full cataloging. The availability and ease of access to the information required for inclusion in cataloging of this type is examined based on a survey of pamphlets cataloged for the collections of the University Libraries at California State University, Northridge.

Abstract

Originally published in 1979 as a title in the Outlines of Modern Librarianship' series this new edition has been expanded and updated in the light of recent developments in this rapidly developing field of librarianship, with particular reference to automation. As a consequence, this edition is substantially more than an outline of the subject. The authors take the reader through a comprehensive exposition of cataloguing - the definitions, arrangement and role of the catalogue: the history of its development; standardization and AACR2; the subject approach via pre-and post-coordinate indexing; analysis; filing rules and methods; the physical forms of the catalogue; the use of the computer in cataloguing; the role of networks; the management of cataloguing; and the relevance of book indexing. There is a detailed index, as well as a list of abbreviations and acronyms and a glossary of terms.

Abstract

The publication of the 1988 revision of the Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules (AACR2) represents an occasion for reflection on the nature and function of cataloguing rules in the 1990s. There is little evidence to suggest that the 1988 revision takes account of the new opportunities offered to cataloguers by the advent of on-line public access catalogues (OPACs).

Abstract

During the summer of 1985 the authors wrote "Shared Cataloging: Some Remaining Issues" as a background document for discussions of the Committee on Bibliographic Control of the Association of Research Libraries (ARL). The paper identifies five factors which result in duplication of original cataloging and inhibit shared cataloging programs among research libraries. Several mechanisms whereby duplication of original cataloging efforts can be minimized in order to increase the efficacy of shared cataloging programs are described. The paper concludes by enumerating eight recommendations for further investigation.

Abstract

The original cataloging records of a marine science library were examined to determine frequency of use. The present study, patterned after an earlier study of municipal reference materials, shows an overall use rate of 45%. Patterns of subsequent use of original cataloging records suggest cataloging priorities, and changes to records indicate areas for attention to database quality control.

Abstract

This study examines the interrelationship of the rules on parallel title in AACR2. What emerges from the analysis are two principles that were utilized in the codification of the rules: (1) a principle of interrelationship (i.e. transcribing a data element in its relationship to other data elements); and (2) a principle of structured format (i.e. transcribing a data element in a prescribed order). A graphic representation of the possible combinations and positions of the data elements of descriptions in the title and statement of responsibility area (Area 1) shows that the present rules do not ensure consistency in bibliographic recording.

Abstract

In an attempt to determine whether further research and discussion is justified in the area of the description of reproductions of previously existing works, this project estimated what proportion of a research library's collection existed in multiple physical manifestation throughout the bibliographical universe. Between a fifth and a third (21-32 %) of the sampled collection was found to be in multiple manifestation. There was less diversity of media in multiple manifestations than expected: 13% of the manifestations identified were microforms, 3.4% were in other media. Seventy-five percent of those works found in multiple manifestation had only one other manifestation identified; the largest number of multiple manifestations identified for one work was 83.

Abstract

The human process of determining bibliographic data from title pages of monographs is complex, yet systematic. This paper investigates the intellectual process involved, in conceptual and logical levels, by proposing a model of the expert system for determining title proper as the first element of the first area in ISBD. It assumes that the title page of a monograph consists of more than one block of character or graphic representation. Each block has its physical and content characteristics and can be separated from other blocks by separators. Three categories of expert knowledge are identified, and the system model is discussed along with its individual system component. It applies the "list" concept for the system data structure and addresses the potentiality of this conceptual model.

Abstract

An important part of cataloging education in library schools is descriptive cataloging, which is concerned with preparing the descriptions, entries and name headings for library materials. Although debate occurs over the primacy of theory and principles, or practices, and whether descriptive cataloging or subject analysis should receive the most emphasis, there is general agreement that all students need instruction in the processes of cataloging. The descriptive cataloging segment of the curriculum of the Graduate School of Library and Information Science, University of Washington, is described to illustrate one approach to cataloging education.

Abstract

Although it was decided more than a year ago to adopt BIBOS Catloguing System for use in Austrian academic libraries, the Working Group on Cataloguing has been voicing doubts as its use begins. Lists these doubts. Deals in detail wih the problem of the hierarchical structure of BIBOS into which records of multi-volume works have to be fitted. In Sept 88 the computer company (EDV GmbH) itself came forward with a technical improvement which would allow the build up of records from the smaller fields, instead of imposing the shape of records from the ultimate data set, which had on occasion even led to contravention of the nominative cataloguing rules, RAK-WB. Cataloguing in the interim period will be complex. The working group has still made no final decision.

Abstract

Although the Name Authority Cooperative Project (NACO) is now almost ten years old, little has been written about it from the perspective of NACO participants. This article provides a narrative case study of the effects of NACO on one academic research library, the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. The decision to accept NACO membership, NACO training at the Library of Congress, post-training implementation at the University of Illinois and effects on work flow, productivity and morale are portrayed in this description. It is hoped that the information contained here can provide more insight into the pros and cons of NACO membership that could be generalized to any library.
