    Abstract
    This is an overview of the development of FAST (Faceted Application of Subject Terminology) from its inception in the late 1990s, through its development and implementation to the work being undertaken by OCLC and the FAST Policy and Outreach Committee (FPOC) to develop and promote FAST. FPOC members explain how FAST is used by institutions in Canada, the United Kingdom, and the United States. They cover their experience of implementing FAST and the benefits they have derived. The final section considers the value of FAST as a faceted vocabulary and the potential for future development and linked data.

    Abstract
    The purpose of this paper is to review the challenges confronting cataloguing as we have known it and to consider how these challenges might be confronted and whether they may be surmounted. The main focus of this paper is on cataloguing rather than the catalogue, although it is obviously difficult to separate one from the other. First of all, what does "cataloguing" mean? For the purposes of this paper I have adopted a broad definition incorporating the following activities: - description of the resource sufficient for purposes of identification and for differentiation from other similar resources - identification and control of access points - identification and control of relationships with other resources - subject analysis of the resource - assignment of subject indexing terms - assignment of classification numbers The challenges facing cataloguing are all too well known. In no particular order, the major challenges are: - Increasing inputs - New kinds of information resource - Competition from other mediation services. - Perception that cataloguing is high cost and offers poor value for money. - Fiscal constraints - Declining workforce This is a daunting list. We have a choice, we could, to paraphrase John Lennon, "Turn off our minds, relax and float down stream", until we retire, take voluntary redundancy, or retrain as marketing consultants; or, we can choose to confront these challenges and consider what they really mean for cataloguing.

    Abstract
    IFLA has encouraged the creation of national bibliographies and the exchange of bibliographic data. Reviews the benefits from the exchange of authority data and considers to what extent such benefits may be realised. Discusses the economic benefits of cooperation; universal bibliographic control; and authority data. Presents case studies of the Anglo-American Authority File and Project Author, an example of how efficiencies may be achieved by making authority data public

    Abstract
    The British Library and the Library of Congress have reinforced their mutual committment to the efficient exchange of high quality bibliographic data by a number of cooperative programmes of which the Cataloguing Policy Convergence Agreement is one example. Sets out the reasons why cataloguing policy differences still exist

    Abstract
    Outlines the benefits sought by the Anglo American Authority File (AAF) project in replacing with a common authority file the Library of Congress US Name Authority File (USNAF) and the British Library Name Authority List (BLNAL). Describes the progress and techniques in the implementation of the project to create the AAF in the British Library (BL) and explains how it is used by cataloguers. Phase 1 was completed in 1996 with the loading of USNAF. Records were in USMARC format but searchable and reusable in conjunction with BLNAL. Phase 2 to eliminate duplicates was completed in 1997 for personal names and corporate names will be dealt with in 1999 when the BL Corporate Bibliographic System is also due to go live. This will prepare the ground for Phase 3, retrospective conversion to integrate BLNAL with USNAF into a single unified file

    Abstract
    RDA: Resource Description and Access is a new cataloguing standard which will replace the Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules, 2nd edition, which has been widely used in libraries since 1981. RDA, like AACR2, is a content standard providing guidance and instruction on how to identify and record attributes or properties of resources which are significant for discovery. However, RDA is also an implementation of the FRBR and FRAD models. The RDA element set and vocabularies are being published on the Open Metadata Registry as linked open data. RDA provides a rich vocabulary for the description of resources and for expressing relationships between them. This paper describes what RDA offers and considers the challenges and potential of linked open data in the broader framework of bibliographic control.
