Los catálogos permiten representar el universo bibliográfico que las unidades de información ponen al alcance de sus usuarios, y facilitan la recuperación de la Información registrada en respuesta a necesidades concretas de información. Su construcción es una de las tareas fundamentales de las bibliotecas. Esta obra es una introducción teórico-práctica a la catalogación, que incorpora los conceptos y terminología más actuales en la disciplina. La catalogación como proceso del control bibliográfico se encuadra en el modelo de los Requerimientos Funcionales para los Registros Bibliográficos (FRBR), y los planteos más recientes sobre las funciones del catálogo ofrecen el contexto para la aplicación de las Reglas Anglo Americanas de Catalogación, 2a edición revisada, actualización de 2003. No sólo el cómo, sino también el por qué de las reglas para la descripción de monografías impresas, determinación y forma de puntos de acceso, títulos uniformes y catalogación analítica, se presentan de manera simple y clara, acompañados de numerosos ejemplos en español. Si bien la sección sobre descripción bibliográfica se ocupa preferentemente de monografías impresas, la obra en su conjunto, destinada tanto a estudiantes como a catalogadores que deseen contar con una obra de consulta, ofrece una excelente introducción a la catalogación de cualquier tipo de materiales, al tratar en detalle los elementos generales de la descripción aplicables a todo tipo de recurso.

There's more at stake at this year's two-day National Cheerleading Competition than taking first place. Lives will be changed and possibly even lost if fifteen-year-old Zoey Christopher doesn't take action. She knows she'll need help, but who to trust is the problem. No one knows about Zoey's gift and she wants to keep it that way. Being fifteen is tough enough. Being fifteen and psychic, as Zoey would tell you if she trusted you, really sucks.
At practice the night before the competition, Zoey gets a vision about a fellow cheerleader whose life is in danger. Later she gets more sensory a cheerleader surrounded by smoke and a panicking crowd; a vendor covered in ashes.
To further complicate her life, she meet Josh, whose very touch sends her sensory system into overload. Circumstances force Zoey to tell Josh, and her friends Becca and Mike, about her visions. The foursome band together to stop the fire that threatens to destroy the hotel/convention center and the lives of so many of her fellow cheerleaders.
