Title

Retrospective cataloguing : some afterthoughts

Abstract

Although the papers presented at the 1sr Int. Conf. on Retrospective Cataloguing in Europe: 15th-19th Century Materials, Munich, Nov. 90, implied the production of online catalogues, it should be borne in mind that manual catalogues still have some advantages and compuetrised catalogues have certain disadvantages. For example the guard book catalogue at Cambridge University Library can provide a range of access points that cannot be equalled. The demands of the majority of users, however, are held to keep conversion to computerised cataloguing at the top of the library's priority list
