The Romanian CIP (Cataloguing in Publication) Program provides standardized library cataloguing for forthcoming Romanian publications. CIP covers only printed publications (for the time being), published in Romania, by registered Romanian publishers.
The CIP catalogue record is a brief and preliminary bibliographic description of a publication, based on internationally established library standards. It includes standardized descriptive information such as: author(s), title, ISBN, classification numbers etc.
In Romania, the CIP Program is defined by the Written Culture Law no. 186/2003.
The responsibility for the coordination of the CIP Program resides with the National Library of Romania. The program is operated through the CIP National Centre, part of the ISBN-ISSN-CIP National Centre, unit within the library. The CIP National Centre is the administrator of the CIP Program, in charge with:
•creating the CIP Program framework, standard of services, criteria of eligibility, etc.
The CIP Program is mandatory under the eligibility criteria and it is free of charge to participating publishers.
Benefits of the CIP Program
•CIP Program provides preliminary cataloguing data in advance of publication. This data is printed inside books.
•CIP records are made available, in real time, in the CIP Catalogue, part of the online Catalogue of the National Library of Romania and in the CIP Bibliography, published monthly, in pdf format on the National library of Romanian website
•For publishers, the program acts as a promoter on the book buying market
•For libraries it is an alerting service enabling selectors to identify books of interest to thir users.
Basic eligibility criteria for CIP
To be eligible for CIP, the following criteria must be met:
•The publisher has a Romanian address and is registered in the Romanian Publishers Database
•The publication is not yet printed
•The publication is intended for public distribution
For the time being, only printed books are eligible for CIP program. These titles must be forthcoming monographs that includes a Romanian place of publication on the title page (a statement indicating distribution in Romania is not sufficient).
Self-published materials and books published on demand are excludes from the CIP program.
Publication on CD-ROM, DVD-ROM, online are excluded. Audio visual materials, printed music, serial publications, single articles, instruction materials and loose-leaf are also excluded.
Works not included in the CIP Program can be cataloged locally or based on the Legal Deposit copy.
The CIP National Centre has the responsibility to apply the eligibility criteria to any request and to decide accordingly.
How does the CIP Program works?
The registered publishers are required to complete the CIP Application Form available on the National Library of Romania website. The completed CIP request must include all mandatory information requested on the form and accurate additional material (e.g. title page, introduction, cover) as needed for completion of cataloguing.
The CIP librarians use these information to create a catalogue record for the book which is then returned to the publisher for printing on the verso of the title page.
The preliminary record is published in the CIP Catalogue and CIP Bibliography.
Following publication, items should be deposited with the National Library of Romania under the legal deposit arrangements.
When the book is received by the bibliographic agency, the (preliminary) CIP record is updated to reflect the item in hand and the final bibliographic record becomes a permanent reference for the book in the online Catalog of the National Library of Romania and in the National Bibliography.
