8 Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules (AACR) Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules (AACR) Divided into two parts:  Rules for creating the bibliographic description of an item of any type  Rules governing the choice and form of entry of headings (access points) in the catalog

9 DESCRITIVE CATALOGING Standard Style  Government Information Locator Service (GILS) Government Information Locator Service (GILS) Government Information Locator Service (GILS) A decentralized collection of agency-based information locatorsA decentralized collection of agency-based information locators Uses network technology and international metadata standards based on ANSI Z39.50Uses network technology and international metadata standards based on ANSI Z39.50 Direct users to publicly accessible information resources available from the U.S. federal governmentDirect users to publicly accessible information resources available from the U.S. federal government Core data elements are:Core data elements are:  title, control identifier, abstract, purpose, originator, use constraints, availability, point of contact for further information, record source, and date last modified

10 DESCRITIVE CATALOGING Standard Style  Dublin Core (DC) Dublin Core (DC) Dublin Core (DC) A standard set of 15 interoperable metadata elementsA standard set of 15 interoperable metadata elements Designed to facilitate the description and recovery of document-like resources in a networked environmentDesigned to facilitate the description and recovery of document-like resources in a networked environment The descriptive elements are:The descriptive elements are:

11 Dublin Core (DC) Dublin Core (DC) descriptive elements Dublin Core (DC)  Title (name given to the resource)  Creator (entity primarily responsible for making the content of the resource)  Subject (topic of the content of the resource, typically expressed as keywords, key phrases, or classification codes)  Description (abstract, table of contents, free-text account of the content, etc.)  Publisher (entity responsible for making the resource available)  Contributor (entity responsible for making contributions to the content of the resource)  Date (typically associated with the creation or availability of the resource)  Type (nature or genre of the content of the resource)  Format (physical or digital manifestation of the resource)  Identifier (an unambiguous reference to the resource within a given context, such as the URL, ISBN, ISSN, etc.)  Source (reference to a resource from which the present resource is derived)  Language (the language of the intellectual content of the resource)  Relation (reference to a related resource)  Coverage (extent or scope of the content of the resource)  Rights (information about rights held in and over the resource)

12 DESCRITIVE CATALOGING Standard Style  Archives, Personal Papers, and Manuscripts (APPM) A content standard for the description of archival materials based on AACR2A content standard for the description of archival materials based on AACR2 Published by the Society of American Archivists (SAA) in 1989 and accepted by most archives in the United StatesPublished by the Society of American Archivists (SAA) in 1989 and accepted by most archives in the United States Been superseded by Describing Archives: A Content Standard (DACS) published by the SAA in 2004Been superseded by Describing Archives: A Content Standard (DACS) published by the SAA in 2004Describing Archives: A Content Standard (DACS)Describing Archives: A Content Standard (DACS)

Divided into three parts ("Describing Archival Materials," "Describing Creators," and "Forms of Names")Divided into three parts ("Describing Archival Materials," "Describing Creators," and "Forms of Names")

14 SUBJECT CATALOGING  The most specific word or phrase that describes the subject, or one of the subjects, of a work  Selected from a list of preferred terms (controlled vocabulary) and assigned as an added entry in the bibliographic record to serve as an access point in the library catalog

15 SUBJECT CATALOGING  Library of Congress Subject Heading (LCSH) The complete alphabetic list of controlled vocabularyThe complete alphabetic list of controlled vocabulary Created by catalogers and used in since 1898 at the Library of Congress in assigning subject headings to facilitate access to the information content of newly published worksCreated by catalogers and used in since 1898 at the Library of Congress in assigning subject headings to facilitate access to the information content of newly published works Available now in:Available now in:  Print format  Machine readable format – also on CD-ROM (CDMARC Subjects)  Microfiche

16 Library of Congress Subject Heading (LCSH)  How To Use Them? Headings in bold type are valid headings; these are the headings used in the library catalogHeadings in bold type are valid headings; these are the headings used in the library catalog BT = "broader term(s)." These are more general headingsBT = "broader term(s)." These are more general headings RT = "related term(s)." These can provide you with ideas for other terms to pursue (like synonyms in a thesaurus).RT = "related term(s)." These can provide you with ideas for other terms to pursue (like synonyms in a thesaurus). NT = "narrower term(s)." These are more specific headingsNT = "narrower term(s)." These are more specific headings UF = "used for," which means "used instead ofUF = "used for," which means "used instead of SA = "see also." A see also reference indicates headings that cover similar subjectsSA = "see also." A see also reference indicates headings that cover similar subjects

17 SUBJECT CATALOGING  Sears Lists of Subject Heading Created by Minnie E. Sears cataloger and bibliographer at a variety of libraries (Bryn Mawr College, University of Minnesota, New York Public Library)Created by Minnie E. Sears cataloger and bibliographer at a variety of libraries (Bryn Mawr College, University of Minnesota, New York Public Library) First published in 1923 for use in school libraries and small public librariesFirst published in 1923 for use in school libraries and small public libraries Narrower in scope and its headings are more general than LCSHNarrower in scope and its headings are more general than LCSH Common terms are much preferred over scientific and technical termsCommon terms are much preferred over scientific and technical terms Also allowed individual libraries the authority to create their own subject headingsAlso allowed individual libraries the authority to create their own subject headings In use : SLSH 18 th ed.In use : SLSH 18 th ed.

18 Sears Lists of Subject Heading  Similarities between the LCSH and SLSH Both lists are subject lists arranged in alphabetical orderBoth lists are subject lists arranged in alphabetical order Both lists make use of overarching subject categories and hierarchical subject subdivisionsBoth lists make use of overarching subject categories and hierarchical subject subdivisions

19 Sears Lists of Subject Heading  Differences between the LCSH and SLSH Favor natural languageFavor natural language Make use of only four types of headings: topical, form, geographic, and proper namesMake use of only four types of headings: topical, form, geographic, and proper names Tended to convert inverted headings into direct entriesTended to convert inverted headings into direct entries

20 CLASSIFICATION  Act of organizing universe of knowledge into systematic order

21 Library Classification  Goes hand in hand with library (descriptive): cataloging and classification  A system of coding and organizing library materials according to their subject and allocating a call number to that information resource  System of arrangement adopted by a library to enable patrons to find its materials quickly and easily

22 Library Classification  May be natural (e.g., by subject), artificial (e.g., by alphabet, form, or numerical order), or accidental (e.g., chronological or geographic)  Some have minute subdivisions while others are broader  Widely used systems include the Dewey Decimal Classification, the Library of Congress Classification, the Bliss Classification, and the Colon Classification

23 Library Classification  Objectives Help user identify and locate a work through call numberHelp user identify and locate a work through call number Group all works of a kind togetherGroup all works of a kind together

24 Types of Classifications System  In general, classification systems can be divided into three types Universal schemes covering all subjects. Examples include Dewey Decimal Classification and Library of Congress Classification depending on how they are usedUniversal schemes covering all subjects. Examples include Dewey Decimal Classification and Library of Congress Classification depending on how they are used Specific classification schemes. Examples British classification of MusicSpecific classification schemes. Examples British classification of Music National schemes specially created for certain countries. Example is SABNational schemes specially created for certain countries. Example is SAB

25 Dewey Decimal Classification  Is a proprietary [ownership] system of library classification developed by Melvil Dewey (10.12.1851- 26.12.1931) in 1876  While working as an assistant librarian at Amherst from 1874 until 1877, Dewey devised his system of classifying and cataloguing books by decimal numbers

26 Dewey Decimal Classification  Revised at 7 years interval  Between edition, the schedules and tables are regularly reexamined, revisions of existing numbers and index entries, and provision for new subjects are made as required

27 Dewey Decimal Classification  How it works Attempts to organize all knowledge into ten main classesAttempts to organize all knowledge into ten main classes The ten main classes are then further subdividedThe ten main classes are then further subdivided Each main class has ten divisions, and each division has ten sectionsEach main class has ten divisions, and each division has ten sections
