Abstract

The paper analyses the evolution of the language of cataloguing, focusing on the concept of authorship. It evaluates cataloguing principles, rules and theory, from Cutter to ICP 2016, in order to study the modification of the idea of author in cataloguing and the emerging importance of non-authorial responsibilities as access points for the organization of catalogues.
