Abstract

Catalogs have evolved over time not only in their physical aspect,

but also the conception of what their functions must be. Several statements on

catalog objectives have been the basis for the writing of cataloging principles

or cataloging codes. This article reviews the statements on catalogs objectives

produced from the 19th century to the beginning of the 21st in order to compare

their characteristics and observe their evolution.
