About the Working Group in Library Of Congress
Advances in search-engine technology, the popularity of the Internet and the influx of electronic information resources have greatly changed the way libraries do their work. To address those changes, the Library of Congress has convened a Working Group on the Future of Bibliographic Control to examine the future of bibliographic description in the 21st century.
The Working Group on the Future of Bibliographic Control is chaired by Dr. Jose-Marie Griffiths, Dean of the School of Library and Information Science at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. She is joined on the group by information professionals representing the American Association of Law Libraries, the American Library Association, the Association of Research Libraries, the Special Libraries Association, Google, Microsoft Corporation and the Program for Cooperative Cataloging. At-large members are from the Coalition for Networked Information and OCLC.
The group was convened by and will report its findings to Associate Librarian for Library Services Deanna Marcum in November 2007.
