Abstract
With a long history, cataloging has developed gradually in China. Nowadays, both the content and method of cataloging have changed in many ways. As a type of organizing cataloging model, centralized cataloging came into being in 1936 in China. The history and the current status of centralized cataloging in China are described in the paper. The prospect for cataloging in the country is also discussed. In respect to resource building and sharing, cooperative cataloging is thought to be the best way to develop cataloging in the future.
