International cataloguing and bibliographic control. 26(1997) no.4, S.75-78

Year

Abstract

Describes the role of the Library of Congress (LoC) in leading cooperative initiatives to overcome the crisis in cataloguing borught about by cuts in cataloguing departments. With the aim of making bibliographic control better, faster, and cheaper the LoC invited experts to discussions from which emerged the Program for Cooperative Cataloging (PCC). Officially established in 1995, the PCC is a coalition of libraries working to increase the availability of unique records created to agreed standards. Membership now exceeds 200. Participants can join programmes for name and series authorities, subject-headings-classification proposals and contribute bibliographic records to BIBCO. Explains the democratic structure of the coalition and assesses the achievements of the LoC and PCC in pursuit of the various goals. Reviews the accomplishment of the Cooperative Online Serials Program and international ventures, involving Canada, UK, Australia and New Zealand and lists the benefits of participation in cooperative endeavours
