Beskrivelse
Resumen:	Bibliographic control before and after MARC is reviewed. The capability of keying into online systems has brought an interdependence among libraries, the service centers that mediate between them, and the large utilities that process and distribute data. From this has developed the basic net work structure among libraries in the United States. The independent development of major networks has brought problems in standardization and coordination. The authors point out that while technology has led toward centraliza tion of automated library services, new developments are now pushing toward decentralization. Coordination is a re quirement to avoid fragmentation in this new environment.
