Chapters provide information on international aspects such as ISBD(S) and ISDS outside of North America, and serials cataloging in the United Kingdom, Australia, and Italy. Other subjects covered include the work of the CONSER Subject and Classification Task Force, the need for uniform titles in AACR2, serials records in online public access catalogs like NOTIS, changes in U.S. policy related to the multiple versions question, the relationship of the Linked Systems Project to serials cataloging, and the role of name main-entry headings in online public access catalogs.
