Digitization and Cataloguing of 18th century prints in Germany (VD 18) in the holdings of the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin - Preußischer Kulturbesitz - Main phase

柏林图书馆收藏了大量18世纪的重要藏书。除了许多外国出版物外，大多数是用德语出版或在德语国家印刷的书籍，包括极其稀有的物品。因此，该图书馆已经参与了VD18的试点阶段，该阶段的目的是为18世纪建立一个追溯的德国国家书目。第一阶段的成果--14.000册数字化图书--可通过开放式图书馆接口获得，并可通过VD18门户网站、数字图书中央收藏中心和S自己的数字藏书使用。由于现有图书只占藏书的一小部分，图书馆计划在拟议的第一个主要阶段从专题材料开始，对另外4.800本图书进行数字化和编目。同样重要和众多的期刊馆藏的数字化工作将在稍后阶段进行。项目工作流程的所有步骤都适用VD18编目和数字化准则。特别是在GBV公共图书馆网编目之前，要对其他编目网进行扩展研究，以避免重复。除了国家书目编目外，Staatsbibliothek还记录了单本的具体情况(例如，出处或装订)。因此，VD18的活动完全融入了图书馆的历史藏品S的工作中。

The Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin ¿ Preußischer Kulturbesitz holds a substantial and important collection of 18th century books. In addition to many foreign publications the majority are books published in German or printed in German-speaking countries including extremely rare items. Therefore, the library already took part in the pilot phase of the VD 18 which aims to build a retrospective German national bibliography for the 18th century. The results of this first phase, 14.000 digitized books, are available via an OAI-interface and may be used via the VD 18 portal, the ZVDD (the central collection of digitized books) and the library¿s own digital collections. As the available books form only a fragment of the holdings, the library plans to digitize and catalogue a further 4.800 books in the proposed first main phase starting with monographic materials. The digitization of the equally important and numerous journal holdings will take place in a later phase.The VD 18 guidelines for cataloguing and digitization are applied in all steps of the project workflow. Especially before cataloguing in the GBV Common Library Network extended research takes place in other catalogue networks to avoid duplicates. In addition to national bibliographic cataloguing, the Staatsbibliothek is recording specifics of single copies (e.g. provenances or bindings). Thus, the activities of the VD 18 are fully integrated in the library¿s work for its historical collections.
