This past Tuesday members of CPSO presented a report on the moving image genre/form project to LC managers. The report
- explains the function of genre/form headings, including the impact that they have on both cataloging operations and end-user searching;reviews the history of genre/form headings in MARC format and at LC over the last decade;explains the logic of choosing moving image headings as the experimental group and the principles and policies that CPSO developed as the project progressed; and,recommends the expansion of genre/form headings beyond moving images and radio programs into such disciplines as law, music, literature, cartography, and religion.
