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

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 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

Report of preliminary findings from an incremental national survey in prgress, beginning with public and academic libraries in Ontaria, Canada. Policies for the adoption of revisions to classification schedules and factors influencing decisions to reclassify existing materials in the collection were investigated

Abstract

Given the paucity of research addressing client preferences for metadata content and display in knowledge access systems, a three-year study involving a sample of Canadian public and academic libraries and their end-users, was undertaken. Gaps between user preferences and the availability and presentation of metadata elements in some current Canadian web-based knowledge access systems were identified. Ideal displays were subsequently prototyped and evaluated. Overall, end-users favoured systems containing brief, concise, and focused metadata elements, restricted to a one-screen, uncluttered display, and enhanced by a variety of hierarchical, associative, and equivalent relationship links.

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.
