Multinational Community Progresses with Standards
IFLA (international Federation of Library Associations) was not historically thought of as a place for standards but in the last few years they have been actively working in both support of and development of standards and guidelines. Their latest offering is the Multilingual dictionary of cataloguing terms and concepts, which is a guide to provide the multinational community a standard set of definitions for many terms and concepts used by the library cataloguing community. Terms and definitions are available in English and a variety of other languages.
