Abstract

The library and Internet communities have been working on standards for identifying and referencing electronic resources. Reports on recent library efforts, including work to record URL and URN (Uniform Resource Locator and Uniform Resource Number) information in USMARC records, and collaboration with the Internet Engineering Task Force (IETF) to define a Uniform Resource Citation for electronic publications

Abstract

Libraries can add value to Internet resources by adding them to the library's catalogue in a manner consistent with the other resources held within the collection. Reports on OCLC studies into cataloguing Internet resources and accessing electronic periodicals. Existing retrieval methods on the Internet are limited because of shallow directory structures and idiosyncratic naming conventions. Catalogue entries for electronic resources need to provide a complete description of the access methodology if they are to satisfactorily connect remote users without the immediate possibility of backup from reference staff

Abstract

This paper reports the results of a year-long survey conducted at the University of Pittsburgh (Pitt) to determine what level of cataloging copy (Library of Congress, member input, or none) is present on OCLC at the time an item is received in Technical Services and after a six-month waiting period. These results were used to divert selected monographs from the normal workflow in order to expedite their cataloging and to release needed shelf space for other items.

Abstract

Looks at access problems that occur when the citations from indexes for articles in series differ from the way the items are catalogued. To illustrate the difficulties encountered,a search was conducted in the online catalogues of various libraries and a comparison made between the bibliographiuc entries found to citations both in electronic indexes and in authors' references. The series: New directions for community colleges (NDCC); was chosen as it has kept the same title, ISSN and editors since 1973; yet is still illusive to identify. Each issue of NDCC, beginning with issue 1, 1973, was examined for citation information, numbering systems and changes in description on the title page. The online catalogue at Ohio State University (OSCAR) was checked to see how each issue was handled over time. Indexes consulted included: ERIC, Education Index; ArticleFirst; and CARL UnCover. Results indicate that the ramifications of local cataloguing decisions affect all areas of librarianship. In this electronic age, the need is great to integrate the various sources of information needed for a patron to go from citation to piece in hand

Abstract

The Electronic Text Center, Virginia University, has been mounting SGML full text databases online since 1992 and is actively building a user community around this Internet based resource. Reports the Library's efforts to integrate these databases into the training, cataloguing, preservation and collection development areas of the library's operations with particular reference to problems such as: the desire for software and platform independent texts; and attempts to solve the cataloguing problems involving SGML bibliographic records using such techniques as the Text Encoding Initiative

Abstract

LIAS, the Pennsylvania State University's (Penn State) integrated interactive online system, provides for messaging by the user to inform library staff of errors found in bibliographic records. The message is sent by use of the OOPS command, and results in a printout which is used by processing staff for online catalog maintenance. This article describes LIAS, the use of the OOPS command, the processing of the resulting OOPS reports, an assessment of the effect of its use, and some speculation on the expansion of the LIAS message system for use in catalog maintenance.

Abstract

Information professions identified the need for a set of standard metadata almost as soon as the WWW became a reality. Several initiatives have already identified the types of bibliographic information that would be necessary to describe and locate an electronic publication. The descriptors identified in the OCLC/NCSA Dublin Core are combined with those assembled by the Coalition of Networked Information and the Internet Engineering Task force to produce a list of electronic citation elements. Advocates embedding these citation elements within electrinic documents through the use of HTML<META>tags and other markup techniques. There is also a call to cataloguing librarians to contribute their expertise in information resources management to document being prepared for the WWW in order to influence the quality of electronic publication from the insides

Abstract

In current cataloging practice, the identification of an item as a member of a particular work set is accomplished by assigning a main entry heading, or main entry citation, in the bibliographic record representing that item. The main entry citation is normally comprised of a primary author name and the uniform title associated with the work. However, the quality of bibliographic records varies, and this means of identification is not universally used by catalogers. Thus, consistent identification and retrieval of records representing editions of works is not guaranteed. Research is reported that investigates the extent to which records that are members of a particular work set may be automatically identified as such.

Abstract

Reports results of a questionnaire survey of cataloguers, conducted over the AUTOCAT Internet discussion group, to determine those areas of cataloguing for which the Internet is a valuable tool and those areas for which it is not as useful. Respondents indicated 4 areas in which cataloguers use the Internet: searching the OPACs of other libraries, communicating with colleagues, accessing online cataloguing documentation and publications, and authority work. Cataloguers who found access to other libraries' OPACs did so for the following reasons: assigning call numbers and subject headings; finding full cataloguing copy from other libraries; enriching their local catalogue with notes present in records in other libraries; finding copy for foreign language items that cannot be read by library staff; and resolving difficult problems when important parts of the item are missing ar are in disarray. Some cataloguers also related processes for which they have found the Internet to not be efficient

Abstract

Reports the work of the ad hoc task force, coordinated by the Scholarly Communications Project (SCP) at Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University, to discuss the best means of cataloguing the theses palnned to be produced directly in electronic forms by postgraduate students. The main goals were to determine a process for handling electronic theses so that access would be at least as good as for hard copy and to find a way to derive cataloguing information from the electronic text and avoid rekeying as much as possible. An important part of the study was the application of existing MARC format tagged record structures to the new system. Concludes with brief notes on the concerns of UMI regarding Internet access of electronic theses

Abstract

Libraries may vary in the level and fullness of cataloging they give to video recordings and in the methods they use to provide access to them. This paper reports the results of a survey exploring the level of cataloging and access methods applied to videos, the degree to which catalogers view screen credits, and how often various credit information is included and used to create access points in catalog records in selected U. S. public and Association of Research Libraries member libraries. Resources for cataloging videos also were examined. Results showed that most libraries cataloged videos at the full level and provided access points to similar types of information in catalog records. Academic librarians reported viewing videos and providing access points to certain information to a greater extent than public librarians did. This study offers a general picture of the credit information libraries include or omit in video catalog records.

Abstract

Efficiency and effectiveness of technical services units are difficult to measure, analyze, and compare, partly because operations are complex and vary substantially from one library to another. Cost studies have been widely conducted as a means of measuring the cost efficiency of specific technical services tasks. Since data on costs are not necessarily comparable among institutions, other quantifiable measures of efficiency and effectiveness would enhance managerial decision-making. This article reports the analysis of data compiled from a survey of twenty-six academic libraries. It seeks to supplement the findings of cost studies by providing measures of efficiency and effectiveness for cataloging departments based on reported productivity, number of staff, task distribution, and quality measures such as backlogs, authority control, and database maintenance. Benchmark productivity levels for six libraries with best practices are identified.

Abstract

This study investigated name changes of women authors to determine how they were represented in indexes and cited references and identify problem areas. A secondary purpose of the study was to investigate whether or not indexing services were using authority control and how this influenced the search results. The works of eight library science authors who had published under multiple names were examined. The researchers compared author names as they appeared on title pages of publications versus in four online databases and in bibliographies by checking 380 publications and 1,159 citations. Author names were correctly provided 81.22% of the time in indexing services and 90.94% in citation lists. The lowest accuracy (54.55%) occurred when limiting to publications found in Library Literature. The highest accuracy (94.18%) occurred with works published before a surname changed. Author names in indexes and citations correctly matched names on journal articles more often than for any other type of publication. Indexes and citation style manuals treated author names in multiple ways, often altering names substantially from how they appear on the title page. Recommendations are made for changes in editorial styles by indexing services and by the authors themselves to help alleviate future confusion in author name searching.

Abstract

We describe the intellectual and physical properties of books as manifestations, expressions, and works and assess the current indexing and metadata structure of monographs in the Book Citation Index (BKCI). Our focus is on the interrelationship of these properties in light of the Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR). Data pertaining to monographs were collected from the Danish PURE repository system as well as the BKCI (2005-2015) via their International Standard Book Numbers (ISBNs). Each ISBN was then matched to the same ISBN and family-related ISBNs cataloged in two additional databases: OCLC-WorldCat and Goodreads. With the retrieval of all family-related ISBNs, we were able to determine the number of monograph expressions present in the BKCI and their collective relationship to one work. Our results show that the majority of missing expressions from the BKCI are emblematic (i.e., first editions of monographs) and that both the indexing and metadata structure of this commercial database could significantly improve with the introduction of distinct expression IDs (i.e., for every distinct edition) and unifying work-related IDs. This improved metadata structure would support the collection of more accurate publication and citation counts for monographs and has implications for developing new indicators based on bibliographic levels.

Abstract

Audiovisual materials present special difficulties for cataloguers by virtue of the fact that they must display the materials and take the cataloguing information from the title screens which may be inconsistent with data on the labels. The chief source cataloguing concept for audiovisual materials was examined through a comparison of citations from fully catalogued audiovisual records and their corresponding citations from bibliographic sourcebooks. A complete printout was taken of all AVLINE (National Library of Medicine's Audiovisual Online Catalog) records for videocassettes, slides and software. The comparison revealed much similarity with title and other title information, however, series, producer, credits, and dates were more completely described in the fully catalogued records than in the sourcebook citation. There was no evidence to support cataloguing using only eye readable materials. Cataloguing using the chief source of information consistently provides more bibliographic data

Abstract

Diese Einführung vermittelt alle wichtigen Kenntnisse über die Regeln für die alphabetische Katalogisierung in wissenschaftlichen Bibliotheken (RAK-WB), das maßgebliche deutsche Regelwerk für die alphabetische Katalogisierung. In die neue, sechste Ausgabe ist der aktuelle Regelwerksstand eingearbeitet. Das betrifft vor allem die Ansetzung von Personennamen. Nach dem einleitenden Kapitel über die Funktion, die äußeren Formen und die grundlegenden Begriffe des alphabetischen Katalogs werden die verschiedenen Eintragungsarten und ihre formale Gestaltung beschrieben. Das Hauptgewicht der Darstellung liegt bei den Bestimmungen über Haupt- und Nebeneintragungen unter Personennamen, Sachtiteln und Körperschaftsnomen sowie deren Ansetzung. Neben den Grundregeln für die Kotologisierung ein- und mehrbändiger Einzelwerke, Sammlungen und Sammelwerke werden auch die Sonderregeln für Kongressberichte, Bildbände, Bilderbücher, Kunstbände, Ausstellungskataloge, Hochschulschriften, Gesetze, Kommentare, Loseblattausgaben, Schulbücher, Reports und Normen behandelt. Die Bestimmungen für Vorlagen mit Einheitssachtiteln, Neben- und Paralleltiteln werden ebenso ausführlich dargestellt wie die schwierigen Fälle fortlaufender Sammelwerke mit Unterreihen. Alle Regeln werden durch Beispiele erläutert. Die Vorlagen werden meist mit ihrer Haupttitelseite wiedergegeben und den vollständigen Lösungen sowie erläuternden Texten gegenübergestellt. Die einschlägigen Paragraphen des Regelwerks werden im Text jeweils in Klammern angegeben. Auf die Belange der moschinenlesbaren Katalogisierung in Online-Datenbanken wird eingegangen. Das Kategorisieren der Katalogdaten wird in einem eigenen Kapitel dargestellt. Beispiele von Aufnahmen gemäß dem Maschinellen Austauschformat für Bibliotheken (MAB2) sollen helfen, die Grundbegriffe der gefelderten Erfassung zu verstehen. Das Lehrbuch Katalogisierung nach den RAK-WB ist eine unverzichtbare Grundlage für Studierende der bibliothekarischen Lehrinstitute und angehende Bibliothekare in der praktischen Ausbildung sowie für das Selbststudium und für die Weiterbildung bereits im Beruf stehender Bibliothekare.

Abstract

In January 1999, the Program for Cooperative Cataloging approved the core bibliographic standard for rare books, called the DCRB Core standard. Like the other core standards, the DCRB Core provides the framework within which catalogers can create bibliographic records that are less than full, but are as reliable as full-level records in description and authorized headings. In the three years since its approval, there is little evidence that the standard has been widely used. This study reports the results of a survey sent to forty-three participants who indicated in a preliminary query that they do use the DCRB Core or that they have made the decision not to use it. In the thirty-seven surveys that were returned, only about 16% of the respondents said they have used the standard to create bibliographic records for their rare books. The libraries that do not use the core standard find it inferior or lacking in a number of ways. Several of those libraries, however, are planning to use the standard in the future or are seriously planning to investigate using it. Such intent may indicate that the time is approaching when more libraries will find reasons to implement the standard. One impetus may come from the findings of a recent survey of the special collections departments of member libraries of the Association of Research Libraries that emphasize the size of the backlogs in those departments. If faster accessibility to specific portions of the backlogs would benefit users more than having fulllevel cataloging, application of the DCRB Core standard could facilitate reducing those backlogs.
