ISBD: International Standard Bibliographic Description

The IFLA Series on Bibliographic Control was formerly known as the UBCIM series (Universal Bibliographic Control and International MARC ). It consists of reports reflecting the ongoing process towards International Cataloguing Principles, which began in 2003. Through the series of meetings represented by each volume the reader will be able to track the development and consultation taking place throughout different parts of the world that will culminate with the creation of a truly international set of principles to guide the development of cataloguing codes worldwide.
