Retired Librarian of Congress, L. Quincy Mumford answers librarians' questions about the

CUMULATIVE TITLE INDEX TO THE CLASSIFIED COLLECTIONS OF THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, 1978

the unique 132 volume, single-alphabet listing of virtually every work classified by LC since 1897.

Background:Librarians have been asking penetrating questions about the Cumulative Title Index to the Classified Collections of the Library of Congress (TLC) ever since it was first announced. We distilled what we believed to be the most significant of these questions and discussed them with retired Librarian of Congress Dr. L. Quincy Mumford, whose 21 year regime (1954-1974) witnessed such relevant landmarks as the beginning of MARC and the introduction of the Shared Cataloging Program. Here are some of the questions and his answers.

Carrollton:Dr. Mumford, just why is title access so important?

Mumford:Well, in the case of the Title Index to the LC Collections, its greatest value probably lies in its most obvious use. When only titles are known to a searcher, TLC will show: authors’ names (and the years of publication), which lead to National Union Catalog entries; precise LC Classification Numbers, which lead to specific card images on the LC Shelflist microforms, and LC Card Numbers for ordering from the Cataloging Distribution Service. In the case of the Shelflist, of course, searches for the precise Class Number should be made in TLC even if the author is known as well as the title.

In addition to this primary use, I should like to comment on the recent trend by acquisitions departments to set up their records by title in order to enjoy faster and more precise access than is provided in main entry catalogs (especially when corporate authors and other problem authors are involved).

The Catalog Management Division of the Library of Congress converted its own Process Information File from a main entry to title arrangement about eight years ago, and I understand that their searching efficiency increased substantially after that change.

In short, librarians have long needed a definitive, singlealphabet title index to the Library’s huge retrospective collection of the world’s literature, and there is no doubt in my mind that this 132 volume set is going to fill that need.

Carrollton:Now that we’ve established the importance of title access, let’s explore just how many and what kinds of titles are in the Classified Collections.

Mumford:Essentially, these contain all of the materials (both monographs and serials) which have ever been cataloged and classified by the Library of Congress since the adoption of its Classification System in 1897. As of January 1979, these totaled approximately 6.5 million titles. About one million (or 18 percent) of these records are included in the MARC (MAchine Readable Catalog) data base which was established in 1968.

Carrollton:In view of the fact that access to the MARC data base is already available to libraries in a wide variety of segments and formats — and as it amounts to only one-sixth of the Library’s collection — would you describe for us just what records make up the non-MARC portion of TLC?

Mumford:Yes. The more than 51/2 million non-MARC entries in TLC will include the following:

— English Language works cataloged before 1968,

“Because of the overwhelming size, longevity, and international scope of LC’s holdings, the great majority of the 6.5 million records in its Classified Collections have never been included in MARC, OCLC, or any other data base.”

— French Language works cataloged before 1973,

— German, Spanish and Portugese Language works cataloged before 1975,

— Materials in the other Roman-alphabet languages cataloged before 1976, and

— Transliterated non-Roman alphabet materials cataloged by LC through 1978.

Because of these delays in entering the Romanalphabet non-English-Language materials, it is estimated that more than half of the one million records prepared during the 12 years of the Library's Shared Cataloging Program have not entered the MARC data base.

A small number of exceptions to the above listing are represented by the Library’s highly selective RECON (REtrospective CONversion) Program which after several years has only just reached its 150,000th record (most of which covered 1968 and 1969 English Language reprints).

Actually, it has been the Library's long range emphasis on collecting and cataloging non-U.S. materials which has led it well beyond the role of a “national library” to its preeminence as a “library to the world”. This emphasis is illustrated by the fact that in the last ten years, only 37 percent of the books processed by LC were in English (and, of course, a large number of these were of non-U.S. origin).

Carrollton:Well, that pretty well takes care of TLC’s coverage of the non-MARC records. Now let’s talk about OCLC. Several librarians have asked what benefits they would get from the Title

Index that they would not already be getting as OCLC participants.

Mumford:First, of course, is the matter of coverage. Because of the overwhelming size, longevity and international scope of LC’s holdings, the great majority of records in its classified collections have not been included in MARC, OCLC, or any other data bases.

Actually, there’s no way of knowing exactly how many records are in the LC Classified Collections that are not in OCLC. We know how many records LC has sent to OCLC (over one million MARC records) but we do not know how many nonduplicate retrospective LC records have been put into the data base by OCLC participants. In spite of the large numbers of records cited by OCLC, after one deducts the MARC input, non-print materials, duplicate records, local publications, and other non-LC materials, the number of retrospective non-MARC LC records entered by OCLC participants should be relatively small. Based on conversations with LC catalogers and others, however, my outside guess would be that some 1.5 million unique non-MARC LC records may have been added by OCLC participating libraries.

This, of course, leaves 4 million non-MARC records in the Classified Collections that are not in the OCLC data base.

The main reasons for the relative lack of OCLC overlap, as indicated above, are the size and international nature of the Library of Congress holdings when compared to those of even the largest of the OCLC participants.

COMPARISONS OF HOLDINGS

The overwhelming relative strengths of the LC collections in specific subject areas are best illustrated in the biennial report, Titles Classified by the Library of Congress Classification: National Shelflist Count (published by the University of California at Berkeley under the auspices of the organization of “Chief Collection Development Officers of Large Research Libraries”). This study compares the holdings of LC to those of 27 major U.S. research libraries in individual LC Classification Schedules.

The 1977 edition of this report shows that the Library of Congress’ holdings are often two or more times as large as those of second-place libraries in a wide variety of significant subject areas, including: American History (Classes E-F), Social Sciences (H-Hx), Language & Literature (P-Pz), Technology (T-Tx), and Bibliography and Library Science (Z), In a telephone survey conducted by Carrollton Press during September, 1979, of the 20 largest members of the Association of Research Libraries, it was learned that although 16 of them are currently OCLC participants, none submit significant numbers of retrospective LC records to OCLC. (A possible exception to this is the University of Texas, which has sent OCLC approximately 20,000 retrospective records to date.)

LC CLASSIFICATION NUMBER CHANGES

Tens of thousands of LC Classification-Number

As the TLC Index Is produced from the REMARC Database, the title entries will be enhanced by the addition of full Imprint data. Also, TLC Itself can be used to order full REMARC records for retrospective conversion. changes will have been picked up and printed in TLC. In many cases where participating OCLC libraries derive their cataloging data from old LC printed cards it would be beneficial if they would consult TLC entries before they contribute retrospective cataloging to the OCLC data base.

Access to up-to-date LC Classification numbers, of course, will also be extremely important to libraries converting from Dewey to the LC Classification system. Moreover, OCLC participants can refer to TLC to find LC Class Numbers for those OCLC records which show only Dewey call numbers.

Carrollton:Dr. Mumford, you’ve demonstrated the usefulness and unique coverage of the LC Title Index. But the set is expensive (even with our prepublication prices and extended payment plans). How can librarians justify its cost?

Mumford:I think the cost effectiveness of the set is best illustrated by the fact that for a one-time expenditure which is less than the year’s salary of a cataloger, TLC will go on year after year saving time and money for a library’s Reference,

Acquisitions and Cataloging Departments — and do so during those future years when inflation will have increased staff salaries and other costs.

Looking at it another way, TLC records cost only $1.78 per thousand at the pre-publication price — and even less if paid in advance. The arguments for ordering the set now and paying in advance also seem impressive to me. Those libraries which ordered Mansell’s Pre-1956 Imprints edition of the National Union Catalog when it was first announced paid less than half of today’s price for that set. Also, the 10% prepayment discount on the Title Index amounts to a healthy $1,143. It is therefore obviously advantageous for libraries to get their orders on record now at the prepublication price. That way, they’ll be certain to get the “Z” volumes at the same price they paid for the “A” volumes.

CLR EXPANDS PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION PROGRAM

The Council on Library Resources (CLR) has received a grant of $650,000 from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation to meet some of the costs of extending CLR’s program of professional education and training.

Using a variety of methods, CLR will focus attention on recruiting highly qualified individuals into the field of academic librarianship, encouraging the development of specialized professional education programs, and providing additional opportunities for experience for academic librarians with leadership potential. Existing programs aimed at improving library management, such as the Academic Library Management Intern Program, will continue. In addition, CLR will work to identify the most pressing questions in librarianship, about which more information is needed.

Expansion of current programs is intended to make possible a broad look at all aspects of professional education and supplementary training that relate to college and research librarianship. An advisory committee, chaired by John McDonald, director of libraries at the University of Connecticut, will formulate methods, define the components of the program, and review its progress.

NEW ARL MEMBERSHIP CRITERIA ADOPTED

The Association of Research Libraries (ARL) Membership adopted a new “Statement on Criteria for Membership’’ at its May meeting in Salt Lake City. With the adoption of the new criteria, the moratorium on applications for ARL membership was lifted.

Developed to help maintain the common focus of the association, the new criteria cover both academic and nonacademic libraries, and incorporate the following recommendations from the ARL Board of Directors: 1) that ARL be primarily an association of research libraries; 2) that nonacademic research libraries be considered by invitation only, with consideration of how they would contribute to the overall goals of ARL; and 3) that a standing membership committee be formed which could consistently interpret nonacademic library criteria over time.
