(ODLIS) 2 Kinds cataloging 1. Original cataloging - preparation of a bibliographic record from seratch, without the aid of a pre-existing catalog record for the same edition, more time-consuming for the cataloger than copy cataloging. 2. Copy cataloging-adaptation of a pre-existing bibliographic record (usually found in LOC, Ohiolink, Worldcat, etc.) to fit the characteristics of the item in hand, with modifications to correct obvious errors and minor adjustments to reflect locally accepted cataloging practice. Descriptive Cataloging Descriptive cataloging - the process of providing the descriptive data and access points (other than subject) for surrogate records that are to be part of a catalog {Arlen Taylor). An overall cataloguing process in which an item is described through its author, title, edition, place of publication, publisher, date of publication, and other physical characteristics the purpose of which is to distinguish /ifferentiate it from ‘other materials in the collection; and i. Description ~ the portion of the descriptive cataloging process in which ‘elements that identify an information package are transcribed into a bioliographic records; also, the portion of the bibliographic records (i.e. Developed in Copenhagen in 1969 at the same time as MARC for bibliographic data; > Separates the different parts of the bibliographic description of an iter eight (8) sections > ISBD has been incorporated into most cataloging codes developed or modified since 1969; ‘The International Standard Bibliographic Description is the name of a group of standards developed by agreement between the International Federation of Library Associations (IFLA) and Joint Steering Committee for the Revision of AACR (JS-CAACR) and accepted by the Intemational Cataloguing Community, first published in 1977, to standardize the deseription for the descriptive part of a catalog and bibliographic records produced in different countries. ‘The ISBD provides the underlying framework for part lof AACRZR. As Lynne Lighthall said “you can compare the ISBD to a skeleton and the rules of part | of AACR2R as that which fleshes out the skeleton”. ‘The ISBD prescribes: 4, Source of information 2. The punctuation marks which precede, enclose, or introduce each area and element of description 3. Organization of the description into a sequence of @ areas and its elements 4. Mandatory ot optional areas and elements recommended for national bibliographic agencies and other liorares or information centers. 1880 structure aims to 41. Make records from different sources interchangeable 2. Assist in the interpretation of records across language barriers; and 3. Assist in the conversion of bibliographic records to machine-readable form The ISBD divides the descrition into eight units, called areas, presented inthe following order. 1. Title and statement (s) of responsibil area 2. Edition area 3, Material (or type of publication) specific detalls areal "special" area 4, Publication distrioution, etc. area 6. Physical description area 6. Series area 7. Note(s) ares 8. Standard number area ‘Types of ISBD ISBD (G) developed in 1976, was incorporated into chapter 1 of AACR2R as general format for bibliographic description. Each of the AACR2R chapters numbered 2 to 12 is based on a specialized 1SBD. es.

By 1971, the MARC format had become the national standard for dissemination of bibliographic data and by 1973, an international standard. MARC 21 ~ created in 1999 as a result of the harmonization of U.S. and Canadian MARC formats, and UNIMARC, widely used in Burope. The MARC 21 family of standards now includes formats for authority records, holdings records, classification schedules, and ‘community information, in addition to formats for the bibliographic record Widespread use of the MARC standard has helped libraries acquire predictable and reliable cataloging data, make use of commercially available library automation systems, share bibliographic resources, avoid duplication of effort, and ensure that bibliographic data will be ‘compatible when one automation system is replaced by another. The MARC record has three components: Record structure - an implementation of national and intemational standards, such as the Information Interchange Format ANSI 239.2 and Format for information Exchange ISO 2708 Content designation - codes and conventions that explicitly identify and characterize the date elements within a record to facilitate the manipulation of data, defined in the MARC 24 Format for Bibliographic Data and other MARC 21 formats maintained by the Library of Congress Data Content - defined by external standards such as AACR2, Librery of Congress Subject Headings (LCSH), etc. MARC21 FORMATS 4. Bibliographic format - for encoding bibliographic data in records that are surrogates for information packages 2. Authority format — for encoding authority data collected in authority records created to help control the content of those surrogate record fields that are subject to authority contro} 3. Holdings format - for encoding data elements in holdings records that show the holdings and location data for information packages described in surrogate records 4. Community information format ~ for encoding data in records that contain information about events, progrems, services, and the lke 8. Classification data format ~ for encoding data elements related to classification numbers, the captions associated with them, their hierarchies, and the subject headings with they correlate “The MARC record is divided into fields, each containing one or more related elements of bibliographic descriotion. A field is identified by a three-digit taq designating the nature of ts Content. Tags are organized as follows in hundreds, indicating a group of tags, with XX in the range of 00-98: OXX fields - Control information, numbers, codes 4XX fields - Main entry 2XX fields - Titles, edition, imprint 3XX fields - Physical description, etc. 4XxX fields - Series statements (as shown in item) 5XX fields - Notes 6XX fields - Subject added entries TXX fields - Added entries other than subject or series 8XX fields - Series added entries (other authoritative forms) Definitions Content designator- because tags, indicators, and subfield codes identify each element of information that may occur in a bibliographic record, they are known collectively as content designators. Control fields — carry alphanumeric data elements. Begin with two zeros (Q0X), Most are fixed in length, must consist of a set number of characters, Fiold — data in a record that forms a logical unit Indicator- these are one-digit codes (numbers 0-8) that are listed right ater the tag number. Loador- identifies the beginning of a new record and provides information for the processing of the record. The leader is fixed in length and contains 24 characters. Record directory ~ contains a series of fixed length entries that identify the tag, length, and starting position of each field in the record Record: the collection of fields containing machine-readable information about a separately cataloged item. Each record is made up of control fielis and bibliographic cata fields. ‘Subflelds- within each field, information may be subdivided into smaller iogical units called subfields. e.g. imprint contains subfields: $a-place of publication, $b- publisher Sc-date, ‘Tag- the three-digit numerical codes assigned to each field in the MARC record, and often the fag indicates specific information about the field. Variable fields — MARC records contain two types of variable fields. These are: variable data fields -elphenumeric data, carry traditional cataloging data elements. Three-cigit numeric tags (010-899) . It consists of number and code fields, heading fields, and descriptive fields. Variable contro! field contain neither indicator positions nor subfield codes. They may contain either a single data element or a series of fixed-tength data elements identified by relative character position. The data stored in ths field are used to manipulate records for retrieval, fling, indexing, etc. 7 ‘Components of the record Record ==>Fleldsx=> Subfields (preceded by a delimiter sign $}<=> single character code (alphabetical or numerical) Each record has the same components: 4.
