In the past decade the value of newspapers as a source of information on the history of a nation has been recognized on both the national and international levels. Numerous national programs for the preservation of and access to newspaper collections were launched. The bibliographic component represents the most important task in each of these programs. The process of the formulation of national standards and policies for the bibliographic and holdings description of newspapers is discussed. The United States Newspaper Program and the Decentralized Program for Canadian Newspapers are given as examples. At the international level, the draft guidelines for the bibliographic description of newspapers prepared by the IFLA Working Group on Newspapers are analyzed. The importance of cooperation and exchange of information between the national and international projects involving newspapers is emphasized. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER] |
