Written by some of the most experienced practitioners and managers
in the field of cataloging, this collection examines cooperative
cataloging activities in its many forms. Containing both case
studies and research studies, as well as opinion pieces, it
explores the benefits and cost-effectiveness of cooperative
cataloging programs such as the OCLC Enhance program, and Program
for Cooperative Cataloging programs such as BIBCO, CONSER, NACO,
and SACO. It also provides an introduction to less well-known
cooperative efforts such as the Library of Congress National Union
Catalog of Manuscript Collections (NUCMC) and the ISSN Register.
Cooperative cataloging efforts offer creative opportunities for
managers and administrators as they attempt to provide effective
intellectual access to the rapidly increasing number of
publications acquired by our libraries. This book will help such
professionals to evaluate the effectiveness of cooperative efforts
and apply them in their own unique circumstances. This book was
published as a special issue in Cataloging & Classification
Quarterly.
