contents Landmarks of Science: Microforms Cataloging Project, September 1981-December 1983. Van Orden, Richard Academic Libraries Cataloging Higher Education Information Networks Information Retrieval Information Storage Library Collections Microforms Program Evaluation Program Implementation Research Libraries Science History To improve bibliographic access to the individual works contained in "Landmarks of Science" and "Landmarks II," two comprehensive microform collections of materials related to the history of science, the staff of the University of Utah Libraries cataloged the individual titles. Staff members with backgrounds in Renaissance studies, history, philosophy, and science, and language capabilities in Greek, Latin, German, French, Italian, and Spanish, entered the monographs and serials into the OCLC database according to the standards of the second edition of the Anglo-American Cataloging Rules. Entry in OCLC has provided search capabilities not only to University of Utah Library patrons, but also to users at any of the 4,000 libraries using this bibliographic utility. This five-part project report comprises: (1) a discussion of the grant proposal; (2) an explanation of the organization of the project; (3) a description of the methods used for cataloging the microforms titles; (4) a discussion of the historical value of the "Landmarks Set"; and (5) footnotes to the body of the document.
