Abstract: Suggest reasons why there is no operational OPAC station yet in Iceland. Obstacles include the lack of compatability among computer systems adopted by the major libraries, the differing classification schemes used by them and the lack of a controlled indexing vocabulary or thesaurus for subject analysis in the Icelandic language. The Rejkjavik Municipal Library and the National Hospital Library, both users of the DOBIS/LIBIS system, will be the first users of a potential network of OPACs.

Abstract

There is currently a lively debate about the role of the library catalogue and its relationship to other resource discovery tools. An example of this debate is the recent publication of a report commissioned by the Library of Congress on "the changing nature of the catalogue" As part of this debate, the role of union catalogues is also being re-examined. Some commentators have suggested that union catalogues, by virtue of their size, can aggregate both supply and demand, thus increasing the chance that a relatively little-used resource will be discovered by somebody for whom it is relevant. During the past year, the National Library of Australia (NLA) has been considering the future of its catalogue and its role in the resource discovery and delivery process. The review was prompted, in part, by the redevelopment of the Australian union catalogue and its exposure on the web as a free public service, badged as Libraries Australia. The NLA examined the enablers and inhibitors to proposition "that it replace its catalogue with Libraries Australia, as the primary database to be searched by users". Flowing from this review, the NLA is aiming to undertake a number of tasks to move in the medium to long term towards a scenario in which it could deprecate its local catalogue.
