Abstract

Translate

This survey was conducted in the Winter of 1974/75 to determine the procedures used at libraries for dealing with United Nations publications. Libraries were categorized on the basis of whether United Nations materials were integrated into the main collection or maintained separately. Analysis of the 88 responses to the survey questionnaire indicates that while there are no preferred methods for handling these materials, many libraries are dissatisfied with present procedures. Appended are: (1) the survey instrument, (2) a list of responding libraries, and (3) samples of cards utilized by various libraries for cataloging United Nations documents. (STS)
