  • AACR2 stands for the Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules, Second Edition. It is published jointly by the American Library Association, the Canadian Library Association, and the Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals (in the UK). AACR2 is designed for use in the construction of catalogues and other lists in general libraries of all sizes. The rules cover the description of, and the provision of access points for, all library materials commonly collected at the present time. Despite the claim to be 'Anglo-American', the first edition of AACR was published in 1967 in somewhat distinct North American and British texts. The second edition of 1978 unified the two sets of rules (adopting the British spelling 'cataloguing') and brought them in line with the International Standard Bibliographic Description. Libraries wishing to migrate from the previous North American text were obliged to implement 'desuperimposition', a substantial change in the form of headings for corporate bodies. AACR2 exists in several print versions, as well as an online version. Print versions are available from the publishers. The online version is available only via Cataloger's Desktop from the Library of Congress. Various translations are also available from other sources. Principles of AACR include cataloguing from the item 'in hand' rather than inferring information from external sources and the concept of the 'chief source of information' which is preferred where conflicts exist. As well as occasional minor amendments, a broader revision is under way with a view to a new edition in which the rules are more consistent and coherent, informed by the Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records. This 'AACR3' has the working title 'Resource Description and Access'.
  • Die Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules (AACR) sind ein bibliothekarisches Regelwerk, das erstmals 1967 verabschiedet wurde. Die zweite Ausgabe (AACR2) stammt aus dem Jahr 1978, die jüngste Revision erfolgte 2002 (AACR2r). AACR2 ist das weltweit am weitesten verbreitete Regelwerk und wurde von über 30 verschiedenen Ländern uneingeschränkt übernommen. Herausgeber der AACR sind die American Library Association, die Canadian Library Association und das Chartered Institute of Library and Information Professionals. Das deutsche Pendant sind die seit den 1970er Jahren verwendeten Regeln für die alphabetische Katalogisierung (RAK). In Deutschland gab es heftige Diskussionen darüber, ob von RAK zu AACR gewechselt werden sollte. Unter der Bezeichnung Resource Description and Access (RDA) entsteht zur Zeit (2006) ein Nachfolger, in dem unter Anderem die Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records stärker berücksichtigt werden sollen.
  • Las Reglas de Catalogación Angloamericanas, segunda edición (Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules, Second Edition, AACR2 por sus siglas en inglés) son un conjunto de reglas que se aplican a la descripción bibliográfica y que proveen la forma que deben adoptar los encabezamientos, permiten determinar los puntos de acceso en un catálogo y brindan pautas para describir distintos tipos de documentos. Desde 1951 Seymour Lubetzky, a petición de la ALA, trabajó para desarrollar un código de catalogación basándose en las reglas publicadas por esta institución en 1949. En 1953 se publicaron bajo la autoría de Lubetzky las Cataloguing Rules and Principles; a Critique of the A.L. A Rules for Entry and Proposed Design for their Revision y en 1960 el Code of Cataloguing Rules; Author and Title. En 1961 se celebró en París la International Conference of Cataloguing Principles donde se analizaron estos documentos y surgieron los denominados Principios de París, que sentaron las bases de la catalogación descriptiva en las décadas siguientes. De esta reunión surgió la necesidad de publicar un código internacional aceptado por todos los países del mundo, para facilitar el intercambio de información bibliográfica. La primera edición de las AACR se publicó en 1967 en dos versiones, una bajo un texto norteamericano y la otra bajo uno británico, pues hubo desacuerdos entre ambos países.
  • O Código de Catalogação Anglo-Americano- 2ª edição (CCAA2, ou AACR2 a partir da sigla em inglês), é um auxílio de grande importância para o conhecimento, a aplicação e futuras sugestões, aos profissionais da área que dele se utilizarem. Nele encontram-se regras que determinam as normas internacionais para a descrição dos documentos.
