Assalamualaikum WBT dan salam sejahtera:

This week our class discussing  about how to cataloging books. Based on the information we receive as a result of discussions with our lecturer we find there are some things that should be in the process of cataloging the books as follows:

1. Descriptive cataloging
    • Bibliographic record
    • Rules
    – ISBD
    – AACR2
    • Areas of Description
    • Access Points
    – Authority control
    • Heading

 2. Why catalog?
     • To enable a person to find a document of which
     – the author, or
     – the title, or
     – the subject is known
     • To show what a library has
     – by a given author
     – on a given subject (and related subjects)
     – in a given kind (or form) of literature.
    • To assist in the choice of a document
    – as to its edition (bibliographically)
    – as to its character (literary or topical)
