图书馆编目的困境和未来到底是什么?卜书庆在分析我国图书馆信息组织工作社会化和馆藏目录机读化、自动化带来的困境的基础上,认为编目工作应为元数据的编制完善与应用拓展而正确转型。程焕文坚定地认为,MARC面临的不是消亡而是发展。文献编目始终是图书馆特有的核心技术方法,图书馆人应该守护图书馆的专业技术领地。顾犇认为,近十几年来图书馆编目工作经历的工作量化、人员流动和边缘化三次阵痛,导致了图书馆编目工作的衰落;并指出当前存在的问题,如标准尚未与国际接轨且国内也未统一,在技术变革面前尚有惰性,研究有教条化和科研具体化的倾向,产业链变化引发的转型等。胡小菁认为编目工作的衰落将无可挽回,但现阶段编目工作的需求仍然存在,编目部门应基于编目工作的专业性主动面向书刊以外的馆藏资源开拓新领域,编目员也需要将自己的编目技能提高并泛化到广义的元数据领域。 Based on the analysis of the socialization of library information organization in our country and the difficulties caused by computerization and automation of library catalogs, Bu Shuqing holds that the cataloging should be the compilation and application of metadata Expand and correct transition. Cheng Huanwen firmly believes that MARC is not facing the demise but the development. Document cataloging is always the core of library technology, library people should guard the library’s expertise. Gu Ben believes that in the past decade or so, the work of library cataloging has experienced a painful shift in work volume, personnel turnover and marginalization. This has led to the decline of library cataloging work. He also pointed out the current problems such as the fact that standards have not been in line with international norms Not uniform, there is still inertia in the face of technological change, the tendency of dogmatization and scientific researches in research, and the transformation caused by the change of the industrial chain. Hu Xiaojing believes that the decline of cataloging work will be irrecoverable. However, there is still a need for cataloging work at this stage. Cataloging departments should open up new fields based on the professional nature of cataloging work for the collection resources other than books and periodicals. Catalogers also need to catalog their own cataloging skills Improve and generalize to the generalized metadata area.
