Bibliographic control and collection maintenance are the primary charges of the cataloging area at the University Library. We follow the provisions of the Anglo-American Cataloging Rules, 2nd ed. (AACR2R) and the interpretations of the Library of Congress as stated in the Cataloging Service Bulletin.

Where possible, local modifications and special procedures for cataloging materials in the University Library will follow the general arrangements of AACR2R. Individual sections of AACR2R and the Cataloging Services Bulletin may also be cited.

The University Library also participates in Online Computer Library Center (OCLC), an online system for cataloging and other library services. Whenever possible, OCLC cataloging services will be used. All original cataloging will be uploaded into OCLC databases. OCLC documentation is available in their manuals.

The University Library utilizes Ameritech's Horizon and online catalog. The online catalog contains complete bibliographic records of all University Library items cataloged since 1975.
