Bibliographic control The skill or art of organizing knowledge for retrieval “Bibliographic control comprises the creation, storage, manipulation, and retrieval of bibliographic data. Catalogers produce the tools that are necessary for bibliographic control to function.” Larry Osborne

Tools for bibliographic control BibliographiesDatabases IndexesCatalogs
13
Three parts of cataloging Description – Identifies a specific item in the collection Access – Provides a logical means of locating item in the catalog –Author,* title –Subject(s) Classification – Collocates materials using a particular classification scheme *RDA uses the term “creator” for the person responsible for the intellectual/artistic content of a work in general, the term “author” for works that consist of text
14
Cataloging codes provide uniformity in practice Patrons can move from library to library and be able to locate materials Librarians can provide services from library to library; allows sharing of resources
