The EBSCO Information Services Vantage Point series addresses important issues in the serials information arena. We offer a unique, knowledgeable perspective on these issues based on our experience as a leading integrated information services provider. We believe this perspective can clarify ways in which these issues may affect your library or organization.

The Future of Cataloging contains reprints of two speeches given by library professionals at EBSCO Information Services' Executive Seminar for Research Library Directors at the 2005 Midwinter meeting of the American Library Association.

The Future of Cataloging, by Deanna B. Marcum, Associate Librarian for Library Services, Library of Congress
