In relation to the functions of the catalogue and their influence on other cataloguing principles two working papers were presented at ICCP. The two papers, in fact, illustrate the two contradictory approaches which have their root in the long history of cataloguing codes in relation to the functions of the catalogue and the choice and form of main and added entries. In his working paper, Lubetzky (7963: 139 -143) emphasized the second function (i.e., the collocating function) as the principal element for bringing to gather different editions of the same work. He considered the 'literary unit' (l. e., the 'work') as the basis for description (Lubetzky, 7963:739-740). In this context, different editions and translations of a work should be found together rather than under their own titles. The name of an author must be uniform to bring together all publications by that author. In terms of titles, Lubetzky (7963:147-742) put emphasis on entering publications under the title as found in the fusty publication of the work, or where this was not possible, under the accepted 'conventional title.' This would bring together different appearances of exactly the same work. As indicated in preceding chapters, lack of clear and adequate cataloguing principles concerning the treatment of some basic issues in the online environment often results in retrieval and display problems. Each chapter in the book is self contained and is consistent with the general aim of the book. No doubt, the chapters given in this book shall help the teachers, students and social scientists to understand and explore more in the subject.
