DescribeNZ-LIANZA

 

These cataloguing resources pages aim to be a useful, credible and an up-to-date source of information about cataloguing for both the New Zealand cataloguing community and anyone in the wider library community who would like to discover more about cataloguing.

 

You will find guidance on cataloguing standards, links to resources for professional development and future trends in cataloguing and metadata such as Linked Data and BIBFRAME.

 

The official newsletter of the LIANZA Cataloguing Special Interest Group (LIANZA CAT SIG), Catapult, is also archived here.

 

These pages are maintained by the LIANZA Cataloguing Special Interest Group (LIANZA CAT SIG). Last updated October 2024.
