    Abstract
    By A.D. 2000 the English-speaking countries will have their English Short Title Catalogue (ESTC), listing all works printed before 1801. No equivalent German work is planned at present. ESTC will be based on UK short title catalogues published earlier, covering 1475-1640 (Pollard and Redgrave) and 1641-1700 (Wing). Since 1970 a pilot project has run for a short title catalogue, in machine-readable form, of 18th century works. Libraries abroad will add entries to ESTC. Entry structure is in modified MARC format. By autumn 1990 over 285.000 ESTC entires were retrievable. Material from Pollard and Redgrave and from Wing will be converted into machine-readable form, resulting in a national union catalogue. An ESTC of 19th century works is under consideration

    Abstract
    In order to compare the value of subject descriptors and title keywords as entries to subject searches, two studies were carried out. Both studies concentrated on monographs in the humanities and social sciences, held by the online public access catalogue of the National Library of the Netherlands. In the first study, a comparison was made by subject librarians between the subject descriptors and the title keywords of 475 records. They could express their opinion on a scale from 1 (descriptor is exactly or almost the same as word in title) to 7 (descriptor does not appear in title at all). It was concluded that 37 per cent of the records are considerably enhanced by a subject descriptor, and 49 per cent slightly or considerably enhanced. In the second study, subject librarians performed subject searches using title keywords and subject descriptors on the same topic. The relative recall amounted to 48 per cent and 86 per cent respectively. Failure analysis revealed the reasons why so many records that were found by subject descriptors were not found by title keywords. First, although completely meaningless titles hardly ever appear, the title of a publication does not always offer sufficient clues for title keyword searching. In those cases, descriptors may enhance the record of a publication. A second and even more important task of subject descriptors is controlling the vocabulary. Many relevant titles cannot be retrieved by title keyword searching because of the wide diversity of ways of expressing a topic. Descriptors take away the burden of vocabulary control from the user.

    Abstract
    There is a new approach to make serials cataloguing simpler, efficient and user-oriented. This involves revising the rules defining title changes. The number of needless successive entry catalogue records has declined. Devises and adopts guidelines for the expeditious cataloguing of microform masters. Describes major changes in CENSER. Proposes a solution to the multiple versions dilemma. Uniform titles continue to be the most controversial aspect of serials cataloguing. Serials cataloguers proved themselves to be prolific writers. The subjects given substantive exploration in the literature were many and diverse

    Abstract
    Discusses the underlying principles regarding cataloguing and catalogues. Main entry became largely irrelevant when the unit card and multiple access for works evolved. The title entry unit bibliographic record can maintain, if not improve, standardization and existing principles, and main entry is irrelevant to the catalogue user. Economic issues play a strong hand in suggesting its demise

    One of the most common errors in cataloguing library materials involves miscoding of the nonfiling indicator of title fields. Notes the extent of the problem and its negative effect on searching in the library's online catalogue and surveys how librarians have approached solutions to the problems. Describes how the major library automation system address this problem

    Abstract
    3 months of transaction records from the INNOPAC online catalogue, at Adelphi University, New York, were examined. Patron searchers rely on the standard access points of subject, title, and author for nearly 90% of their searches. Library employees search by title nearly 50% of the time. Title searching predominated among technical services staff as well as public service staff. Approximately 30% of staff searches and 40% of patron searches retrieved no records. Patrons were 10 times more likely than staff to make a search resulting in 500 or more hits

    Abstract
    A recent survey at the Royal Library in the Netherlands showed that subject headings are more efficient than title keywords for retrieval purposes. 475 Dutch publications were selected at random and assigned subject headings. The study showed that subject headings provided additional useful information in 56% of titles. Subsequent searching of the library's online catalogue showed that 88% of titles were retrieved via subject headings against 57% through title keywords. Further precision may be achieved with the help of indexing staff, but at considerable cost

    Abstract
    Reports results of a week long sample observation of card catalogue consultation by library users. Subsequent questioning of users about the purposes for which they consulted the catalogue revealed that the classified catalogue is not used as all and the author and title catalogue are consulted to the maximum. It is also found that 80% of the consultations of card catalogue are to locate documents, 10% is to make comprehensive searches for references on a topic and rest for miscellaneous purposes

    Abstract
    ALEPH, Israel's research library network, was implemented as a highly decentralized network consisting of nearly 30 different files and no union catalogue. To solve the problem of searching these separate files, the Union List of Monographs was implemented in 1991. In reality, neither a union list nor confined to monographs, the Union List of Monographs is, in effect, a union index for locating bibliographic items by author or title, in order to ascertain where they can be found without searching each library's file separately. Reviews the literature of merging files and records, and describes the development of an algorithm for producing the Union List of Monographs

    Abstract
    Effective OCLC catalogue searching is important for libraries that face budget constraints at a time of cost increases for the searching of OCLC database. Describes a study to determine the most effective way to search OCLC, comparing traditional and new searches made available when PRISM was implemented by OCLC, when both time accuracy are factors. The best overall search strategy was found to be the traditional name and title (4,4) search. The new scan title search was found to be the most effective search when time is not a factor or when there are possible variations in the title entry of the item

    Abstract
    Examines the project of retrospective conversion of old collections in public and private libraries in the USA. The 18th Century Short Title Catalogue lists all the books printed in the British Isles, the American colonies, the United States, Canada or the territory governed by the English, from its origins to 1800, as well as all works published in English worldwide. This group is organized in the form of a collective catalogue managed by 2 centres of cataloguing and monitoring (the British Library and the University Library at Riverside, CA). Emphasizes the undeniable scientific interest of this project and underlines its limitations

    Abstract
    BVB-KAT is the catalogue data bank of the Bavarian Library Cooperative. In June 91 BVB-KAT contained 2,9 million entries. Linkes with this central system are local integrated systems which include an OPAC service. BVB-KAT comprises 4 linked files, including the title file, containing all bibliographic data included in ISBD except corporate bodies; these are in a separate data file, which can be linked to the title file on demand. The extensive use of the corporate body file in the cooperative leads to rationalisation and unification of data. Both files permit free text retrieval

    Abstract
    Describes the problem of cataloguing ephemera, and advocates a hybrid cataloguing practice, combining from as many codes as necessary the most appropriate rules. Offers advice on constructing the following elements of MARC-formatted catalogue records: main entry; title and edition; publisher statement; date; physical extent; note area; and access

    Abstract
    A study was done to test the effectiveness of retrieval using title word searching. It was based on actual search profiles used in the Mechanized Information Center at Ohio State University, in order ro replicate as closely as possible actual searching conditions. Fewer than 50% of the relevant titles were retrieved by keywords in titles. The low rate of retrieval can be attributes to three sources: titles themselves, user and information specialist ignorance of the subject vocabulary in use, and to general language problems. Across fields it was found that the social sciences had the best retrieval rate, with science having the next best, and arts and humanities the lowest. Ways to enhance and supplement keyword in title searching on the computer and in printed indexes are discussed.

    Abstract
    This paper outlines the development of serials cataloguing in Germany, which started with entries usually in systematic catalogues. Cataloguing codes were developed first by individual major libraries; the establishment of a Prussian union catalogue called for generally recognized rules, but these focused mainly on sorting and filing. When, in the 1960s, the Prussian Instructions were given up in favor of RAK (Regeln für Alphabetische Katalogisierung), ISBD was adopted for the descriptive part. As to modern international cooperation, this paper explains that the main obstacles are not so much different cataloguing codes but the lack of consensus on the definition of a serial title. Recent revision efforts missed the opportunity of accepting an International Standard Serials Title.
