The well‐prepared index at the end of the volume provides a useful look‐up tool to find the issues and topics of interest. The strength of this volume lies in the fact that, taking all papers together, it provides a wide‐ranging account of issues surrounding cataloguing in the new information environment. This is achieved through providing a coherent framework to present and discuss well‐established standards and tools in the library profession and those developed as a result of technological changes and internet‐related developments.
