A 1988 survey revealed that most libraries were not using serials standards despite their growing availability. This study assessed awareness and implementation of these crucial library technical standards.

Area of Science:

  • Library and Information Science
  • Technical Services
  • Serials Management

Background:

  • Serials management presents complex challenges in library technical services.
  • Historically, a lack of standardized formats has hindered efficient serials control.
  • Emerging standards offer potential solutions but face slow adoption.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the awareness and implementation of serials standards among librarians and vendors.
  • To identify the types of serials systems in use and their relation to standards.
  • To understand staff training needs and perceived benefits of serials standards.

Main Methods:

  • A survey was distributed in spring 1988 by the American Library Association's Committee to Study Serials Standards.

  • The survey targeted members of the Association of Research Libraries, CONSER, and other relevant library groups, along with vendors.
  • Questionnaires covered system usage, standards implementation, training, and perceived benefits.

    • Main Results:

    • The majority of institutions surveyed were not utilizing standard serials formats.
    • Awareness of relevant serials standards varied among librarians and vendors.
    • Implementation levels of serials control and union listing standards were low.

    Conclusions:

    • Significant gaps existed in the adoption and application of serials standards in 1988.
    • Further education and training are likely needed to promote the benefits and use of serials standards.
    • Addressing areas where standards are most needed could improve serials management practices.
