Summary: | Designed to introduce cataloging students, beginning catalogers, copy catalogers, and department administrators to cataloging, classification, and indexing principles, this work offers a solid foundation for standard practices of cataloging and bibliographic control in the United States and Canada. The authors examine pertinent issues regarding bibliographic services, including the computerization of bibliographic systems (both large networks and local systems), and they review the major considerations in decision making about cataloging and classification, shelving, and public catalogs. In addition, this edition incorporates recent cataloging rule changes, MARC format integration changes, and other newly approved material. A new chapter on managing the cataloging department has been added, and the index, bibliography, chapter reading lists, and glossary have been updated and expanded. This is the only book on the subject that covers Canadian cataloging practice. |
