Abstract

The author of this article Looks at access problems that occur when the citations from indexes for articles in series differ from the way the items are cataloged. To illustrate the difficulties encountered, a search was conducted in the online catalogs of various libraries and a comparison made between the bibliographic entries found to citations both in electronic indexes and in authors’ references. The results indicate that the ramifications of local cataloging decisions affect all areas of librarianship. In this electronic age, the need is great to integrate the various sources of information needed for a patron to go from citation to piece in hand.
