The CSB lists revised Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules 2; Library of Congress Rule Interpretations of Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules 2; changes to the American Library Association/Library of Congress Romanization Tables: Transliteration Schemes for Non-Roman Scripts; changes to the Library of Congress subject headings; and includes “Cataloging Publication News,” “News of Cataloging Projects,” and more.
