The main goal of the ISBD is, and has been since the beginning, to provide consistency when sharing bibliographic information. The ISBD is the standard that determines the data elements to be recorded or transcribed in a specific sequence as the basis of the description of the resource being catalogued. In addition, it employs prescribed punctuation as a means of recognizing and displaying data elements and making them 10 understandable independently of the language of the description. A new Statement of International Cataloguing Principles was published by IFLA in 20091. In these principles, which replace and broaden the Paris Principles2 of 1961, the fifth section is devoted to bibliographic description where it is stated that “Descriptive data should be based on an internationally agreed standard.”3 A footnote identifies the ISBD as the standard for the library community, as the statement of principles is intended not only for libraries but also for archives, museums, and other communities. Although the development of this standard was originally motivated by the automation of bibliographic control as well as by the economic necessity of sharing cataloguing, the ISBD continues to be useful for and applicable to bibliographic descriptions of all kinds of resources in any type of catalogue, whether 20 online or in a form less technologically advanced. Those agencies using national and multinational cataloguing codes could apply this internationally agreed-upon standard conveniently in their catalogues. Work on the ISBD has been guided by the following objectives and principles: • The ISBD provides consistent stipulations for description of all types of published resources, to the extent that uniformity is possible, and specific stipulations for specific types of resources as required to describe those resources. • The ISBD provides the stipulations for compatible descriptive cataloguing worldwide in order to aid the international exchange of bibliographic records between national bibliographic agencies and throughout the international library and information community (including producers and publishers). 30 • The ISBD accommodates different levels of description, including those needed by national bibliographic agencies, national bibliographies, universities and other research collections. • The descriptive elements needed to identify and select a resource must be specified. • The set of elements of information rather than the display or use of those elements in a specific automated system provides the focus. 1 IFLA Cataloguing Principles: the Statement of International Cataloguing Principles (ICP) and its Glossary in 20 Languages.

The organization of provisions in the present text is to give first the general stipulations that apply to all types of resources, then the specific stipulations that add information required for that specific type of resource or are exceptions to a general rule. In general, the ISBD is applied to describe manifestations, by means of description of the item in hand as 40 an exemplar of the entire manifestation, in the terminology of Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR)4. In this way, the ISBD applies the Statement of International Cataloguing Principles, which establishes that “A bibliographic description typically should be based on the item as representative of the manifestation”.5 In the ISBD, national bibliographic agencies are called upon to prepare definitive descriptions that “contain all the mandatory elements set out in the ISBD insofar as the information is applicable to the resource being described” (see A.1.3). This practice is also recommended for application by libraries that share bibliographic
