Collection description policy

1. Policy aim and scope  
This policy provides a statement of the National Library of Australia’s current approach to describing its collections of Australian and overseas resources, both published and unpublished.  It covers all collection description activities undertaken in relation to the Library’s collections by Library staff as well as externally supplied descriptions from volunteers and other third parties such as publishers.  It also covers automated contributions to resource description and data enrichment, such as the aggregation of data from multiple sources in Trove.
This policy supersedes the Library’s previous Cataloguing Policy and Cataloguing Authority Control Policy.
