The Prepublication Data Service (formerly Cataloguing in Publication) is a free service offered by the National Library of Australia.
This service is for Australian publishers and self-publishing authors who want the details of their upcoming publications made available to Australian libraries, library suppliers, and other members of the book industry for acquisition purposes.
