ABSTRACT. Using a set of
bibliographic records from the OCLC database, records meeting PCC core standard
are compared with those meeting PCC full standard.
Significant statistical differences are derived for occurrence of
specific name and subject access points in core and full records.
Implications for OPAC access may inform libraries' policies regarding
incorporation of core records in copy cataloging procedures.

An Interview with Martha
M. Yee, Conducted by
Allyson Carlyle
In an interview with Allyson Carlyle, Martha M. Yee discusses her career and her
contributions to cataloging theory, particularly with regard to the concepts work,
edition, and near-equivalent; the concept of edition as
applied to film; access to form and genre in Anglo-American catalogs; and
proposed revisions of AACR2 rule 0.24, the rule that governs the object of a
cataloging record. Other topics
include Yee’s recent work for IFLA to create guidelines for OPAC displays, the
influence of her position as a film cataloger on her thought and writings, and
changes in cataloging practice that she believes should be made.
Yee also shares a list of her favorite movies.

Throughout my five years as editor of this column I have attempted to collect and disseminate information on all aspects of cataloging and classification. I have tried--sometimes successfully--to include news concerning you, your research efforts, and your organization. Indeed, at times I have managed to gather materials to cover information about cataloging activities beyond our borders. Now that I am moving on to focus on other activity, I look back on a busy but fascinating time, during which catalogers and cataloging have witnessed enormous changes. It has been a pleasure to work with Dr. Ruth Carter, CCQ Editor and with all of you who have faithfully submitted reports and news over the years. Please continue to do so as a new, energetic editor comes on board for this column. She is eager to hear from you and keep readers informed of what is happening in our field. This column is not just intended for news items, but serves to document discussions of interest to the cataloging community at this challenging and changing time in our professional lives. Please continue to send any pertinent materials, notes, minutes, reports to: Sandy Roe, Catalog Librarian, Memorial Library, Minnesota State University, Mankato, MSU 19/PO Box 8419, Mankato, MN 56002-8419 (email: sandra.roe@mankato.msus.edu).
