All chapter have been reviewed, revised, and in some cases, reorganized for clarity.

This book will help cataloguers pick better matching records and systems and help librarians understand the content of records at the core of their collections. Providing clear, practical direction, this authoritative reference is a premier resource for students and instructors to create and edit consistently good MARC records.

A must for every Cataloguer and Librarian.
