Title

Tepid water for everyone? : the future OLUC, cataloguers and outsourcing

Source

OCLC systems and services. 10(1994) no.1, S.5-8

Year

1994

Abstract

Discusses the future of the OLUC (OCLC's union catalogue) and considers the danger that the cataloguing world in the USA might be at the beginning of a cycle of decisions leading to a superior technology that will give patrons access to a mediocre bank of information. Sees the danger to lie in new OCLC services which provide cataloguing at source, and in the tendency of some libraries to have all their cataloguing done externally, through 'outsourcing' and commercial cataloguing. The dangers of these trends, that is lower quality cataloguing and a reduction in the cataloguer's role, can be avoided by cataloguers taking on different and more active roles. Emphasizes the record management role of cataloguers and the need for their expertise in enhancing existing records, contributing at a national level to authority records, and shaping the characteristics of the OLUC
