Abstract

The article presents the initial access and input of the University Library to the Subject Heading Authority File, a controlled keyword descriptor system used for subject indexing in library catalogues, and then to the Central NUKAT Catalogue. The authors discuss procedures related to co-cataloguing within this system. A particular attention is given to the problems of formal and subject processing of documents. Solutions and arrangements worked out at the Library and aimed at streamlining the work of cataloguers are presented as well as the Library’s participation in projects and training sessions organized by NUKAT . Additionally, KABA, the subject heading language used to describe publication subjects in Polish academic libraries, originated in the 1990s, is presented. The present article summarises the ten years of active cooperation with NUKAT , but also includes information on preparations and relevant works prior to its actual implementation.
