Le cinque leggi della Biblioteconomia, catalogazione centralizzata, storia della catalogazione, normalizzazione, regole di catalogazioneAbstract
Le cinque leggi della biblioteconomia enunciate da S. R. Ranganathan nel 1928, hanno modificato in modo importante l’idea di biblioteca pubblica e orientato la sua evoluzione, ponendo i bisogni informativi del lettore al centro della sua stessa ragione di esistere. Tuttavia esiste una sesta legge, non scritta, che già dal 1851 ha guidato gli sforzi della comunità bibliotecaria internazionale. Questa ricerca traccia il percorso e fissa le tappe fondamentali che hanno caratterizzato questa legge, dal Plan for Stereotyping Catalogues di Jewett all’Universal Bibliographic Control (UBC) programme dell’IFLA.
