Abstract
New publishing and content distribution practices, as well as new ways of information seeking introduced by technological innovations, have lead to the rethinking of both the role and form of library catalogues. In this context, the need for developing a new cataloguing code for Croatian libraries was recognized. The new code aims at providing semantic interoperability between heritage communities and therefore will be designed as a content standard for various types of material. The article presents international guidelines, standards, models, and other documents that serve as a basis for the development of the code and provide help in determining its scope, design and structure. The code is based on entities, attributes and relationships of IFLA’s draft FRBR-LRM, the consolidated model that supersedes the previous FR-models. The article discusses the influence of FRBR-LRM on the general design of the code, as well as „FRBRrisation“ of ISBD (International Standard Bibliographic Description) and its impact on the structure of the rules. Conceptual models and standards developed by archival and museum communities are also briefly presented, mostly in the context of necessary mappings and alignments.
