Title

DOBIS and the Canadian Union Catalogue

Source

Cataloging and classification quarterly. 8(1988) nos.3/4, S.165-186

Year

1988

Abstract

The Canadian federal government's version of the DOBIS database, and the operation of the Canadian Union Catalogue as a subset of that database, are explained. DOBIS' versatility stems from its ability to handle bibliographic records of varying levels of fullness and definition within a shared file. The Union Catalogue's experience with minimal level records as contributions to DOBIS is detailed.
