Abstract

Provides a brief history of cataloguing in Turkey from the Ottoman Empire until 1961. Discusses the current automation of bibliographic control and AACR2 cataloguing. While most of the libraries in major cities use computers for cataloguing, some are still at the feasibility study stage. The National Library started using AACR2 in 1985. Towards the end of the 1980s mainframe computer and software were acquired, and retrospective cataloguing has continued since 1990. Discusses the Directorate General of Libraries centralized cataloguing project for public libraries; problems with the Turkish alphabet; the creation of authority files; the creation of a national MARC format; and the use of expert systems

Abstract

Resource Description and Access (RDA), as a new cataloging standard, supports libraries in their bibliographic description processes by increasing access points. The increasing importance of RDA implementation requires adaptation to a new bibliographic universe. Furthermore, many initiatives have been launched by countries who would like to keep themselves up-to-date by using and implementing RDA in their library catalogs. This study points out the awareness and expectations of catalogers in academic libraries in Turkey about the transition from Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules, Second Edition (AACR2) to RDA and their potential problems in adapting RDA. The situation in Turkey in terms of academic libraries is evaluated and reported.
