Rezensionen / Stimmen
"As with the first edition, Hsieh-Yee continues to provide a good resource for helping new and experienced catalogers make the tricky cataloging decisions required by these complex formats....Hsieh-Yee's book has applications for the classroom and for catalogers seeking to understand the complexities of cataloging inthe formats that are increasingly the focus of the work. The richness of the context required to catalog these materials is provided by Hsieh-Yee's depth of understanding." - TechKNOW "As libraries acquire more and more non-book items, or choose electronic resources over hard copy resources, the problem of how to catalog and organize them becomes more acute. Several books have been written recently on this topic, some more useful than others. Hsieh-Yee's contribution in one of the useful ones....[t]his book is recommended for cataloging classroom use and for any cataloger who would like a quick course in how to deal with modern media." - Technical Services Quarterly "Hsieh-Yee's book offers guidance for both self-study and for course text use on cataloging the full spectrum of nonprint resources: sounds and video recordings, data files, Internet sites, and e-journals. As she notes in the preface, the AACR2 rules have evolved, particularly for electronic resources, and new Library of Congress rule interpretations have been issued as well. Thus, this book presents the most up-to-date standards and provides current illustrative examples to reflect these changes....This book fills a niche as an updated resource for cataloging nonprint materials....Technical services staff in all types of libraries, as well as students and faculty, will welcome this comprehensive, authoritative, and valuable addition to the library literature." - Reference & User Services Quarterly "Ingrid Hsieh-Yee shares all the latest cataloging rules in this second edition of Organizing Audiovisual and Electronic Resources for Access." - American Libraries
