Summary: In the latest edition of this classic work, Arlene Taylor once again offers a complete, up-to-date, and practical guide to the world of cataloging and classification. Since the publication of the ninth and ninth-revised editions (2000 and 2004), changes have occurred in almost all areas of the organization of information in general, as well as in cataloging and classification. The 10th edition incorporates the "2002 Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules, Second Edition" (AACR2), MARC 21, the 22nd edition of "Dewey Decimal Classification", current schedules of the LC Classifications, the latest Library of Congress Subject Headings, and the 18th edition of the "Sears List of Subject Headings". In addition, Taylor addresses such vital issues as FRBR (Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records), FAST (Faceted Application of Subject Terminology), and the Semantic Web. The bibliography and glossary have also been substantially reworked. In fact, only the appendix, which covers arrangement dilemmas and filing rules, remains unchanged.
