Kuliah kedua

Pada minggu ini, kami mempelajari Topik 'Descriptive cataloging' 21 Sept 2012

Descriptive cataloging

 
"Descriptive cataloging" sets out to provide access points, applying a set of standards, different qualifications and often also different kinds of professionals. Descriptive cataloging describes what the information object is, not what it is about. It requires the descriptive cataloger to identify the title proper of a work, the person responsible for the work (personal author, corporate author, etc.)

Catalog
A list of library materials contained in a collection, a library or a group of libraries, arranged according to some definite plan

Cataloging rules have been defined to allow for consistent cataloging of various library materials across several persons of a cataloging team and across time. Users can use them to clarify how to find an entry and how to interpret the data in an entry. Cataloging rules prescribe which information about a bibliographic item is included in the entry and how this information is presented for the user. Currently, most cataloging are based on, the International Standard Bibliographic Description (ISBD), a set of rules produced by the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA). These rules organize the bibliographic description of an item in the following areas: title and statement of responsibility (author or editor), edition, material specific details (for example, the scale of a map), publication and distribution, physical description (for example, number of pages), series, notes, and standard number (ISBN). The most commonly used set of cataloging rules in the English-speaking world are the Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules, 2nd Edition, or AACR2 for short. AACR2 provides rules for descriptive cataloging only and does not touch upon subject cataloging. 3 main areas in catalog record are classification, description and subject.

Bibliographic
A bibliographic record is an entry being a uniform representation and description of a specific content item in a bibliographic database (or a library catalog), containing data elements required for its identification and retrieval, as well as additional supporting information, presented in a formalized bibliographic format. Bibliographic records are usually retrievable from bibliographic databases by author, title, index term, or keyword.  The headings consists of main entry, added entry and subject headings.
