Full Description
Serials Cataloging (1987) assesses the state of the art of serials cataloging, especially in two areas: the rules by which the cataloguing record is created and the automation of that record. It looks at how libraries' dependence upon bibliographic utilities for cataloguing data has led to an acceptance of cataloguing standards that conform closely to internationally accepted principles.
