International Cataloguing Principles
The (Statement of) International Cataloguing Principles (ICP) define(s) the foundation for the creation of bibliographical cataloging rules for libraries. The ICPs are an initiative of the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA) to modernize and replace the old Paris Principles (cataloging), Paris Principles (PP). The ICPs were drawn up at conferences, the ''IFLA Meetings of Experts on an International Cataloguing Code'' (IME-ICC), on four different continents: in Frankfurt am Main (2003), Buenos Aires (2004), Cairo (2005), Seoul (2006) and Pretoria (2007). First published in 2009, they were revised again in 2014 and 2015. A new ICP edition was published in 2016. The ICPs are intended as a global guideline for the development of cataloging regulations. They aim to achieve uniformity in both formal and subject indexing and have been created for all types of media (not just books). The ICPs build on Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records ...

Paris Principles (cataloging)
The Paris Principles (PP), also known as the Statement of Principles, defined the theoretical foundation for the creation of bibliographical cataloging rules for libraries. They were specified and agreed upon in October 1961 at the ''Conference on Cataloguing Principles'' (CCP) of the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA) in Paris. The six-page script stipulated which function and structure library catalogs should have in the future. It was the first international agreement – delegations from 65 countries were involved – on fundamental questions of cataloging, which formed an important basis for the development of regulations such as the German (RAK). For example, determining the function of a library catalog is influential up to now. By using the catalog, the user should be able to determine whether a respective library holds a certain book of which is known: * the author and the title, or * only the title (if the author is not mentioned ...

Functional Requirements For Bibliographic Records
Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR ) is a conceptual entity–relationship model developed by the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA) that relates user tasks of retrieval and access in online library catalogues and bibliographic databases from a user’s perspective. It represents a more holistic approach to retrieval and access as the relationships between the entities provide links to navigate through the hierarchy of relationships. The model is significant because it is separate from specific cataloguing standards such as Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules (AACR), Resource Description and Access (RDA) and International Standard Bibliographic Description (ISBD). User tasks The ways that people can use FRBR data have been defined as follows: to find entities in a search, to identify an entity as being the correct one, to select an entity that suits the user's needs, or to obtain an entity (physical access or licensing). FR ...

Resource Description And Access

It is published jointly by the American Library Association, the Canadian Federation of Library Associations, and the Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals (CILIP) in the United Kingdom. Maintenance of RDA is the responsibility of the RDA Steering Committee (RSC). As of 2015, RSC is undergoing a transition to an international governance structure, expected to be in place in 2019.

Preußische Instruktionen
The so-called or PI (English: Prussian instructions) are a cataloging set of rules for libraries which was used in scientific libraries in German-speaking countries and beyond. First published in 1899, the PI were replaced by other sets of rules such as the (RAK) from the 1980s onwards, which in turn have been replaced by the Resource Description and Access (RDA) rules since 2015. History Already in 1874 (hectographed edition) and 1886 (printed edition), Karl Franz Otto Dziatzko of the University Library at Breslau had presented a set of cataloging rules under the title "", also known as "" (English: Breslau instructions). In there, the order of the titles was defined, but not the bibliographic recording. In 1890, the in Berlin created "instructions" that regulated the admission but not the order of entries. In 1899, a compromise arose from these two sets of instructions, resulting in the first uniform set of rules, the "" (PI). They were first published on 10 May 1899 unde ...

Berliner Anweisungen
The or BA (English: Berlin instructions), short for (English: Instructions for the alphabetical catalog of the public libraries) were a set of bibliographical cataloging rules for public libraries in Germany. They were developed from 1938 to 1942, built on the much more complicated (PI) (English: Prussian instructions) created for scientific libraries in 1899 and expanded by DIN 1505 in 1932. Since 1976/1977, public libraries in Germany-speaking countries work with the ( RAK-ÖB) set of rules, which were based on the Paris Principles (PP) introduced in 1961 and the International Standard Bibliographic Description (ISBD) as of 1971. RAK in turn is in the process of being superseded by the adoption of Resource Description and Access (RDA) since 2015.
