Filmkatalogisering
en behovs- och regelanalys
The aim of this thesis is to examine the characteristics of film cataloguing, and to compare general as in library use and specific as in archival use cataloguing rules. Most rules, both in archives and libraries, use the book as a point of reference. This is somewhat unfortunate on account of the great difference between books and films. The method used is studies of literature and qualitative interviews with three persons whose professional duties include cataloguing of films. The sets of rules which are studied are Katalogiseringsregler för svenska bibliotek KRS and The FIAF Cataloguing Rules for Film Archives. Theories about cataloguing including Cutter among others are presented and used as a basis for the discussion. The study shows that different media have different characteristics which have to be considered in the cataloguing. It depends on the institutions and the users which characteristics are the most important, and which rules are the most relevant.
