| Summary |
"Création d'un répertoire bibliographique universel : Conférence…" by H. La Fontaine and P. Otlet is a scientific publication likely written in the late 19th century. This book focuses on the concept and organization of a universal bibliographic directory, emphasizing the importance of systematic cataloging and information dissemination within the realm of knowledge. The content delves into the necessity for a comprehensive bibliographic system that can accommodate past, present, and future works across various fields of study, including law, statistics, and literature. It outlines the requirements for such a directory, which must be complete, precise, accessible, and adaptable to the needs of researchers and practitioners alike. The authors discuss the organization of the International Office of Bibliography in Brussels, which already has considerable bibliographic records, and propose a systematic and collaborative method for expanding this repository to enhance global access to intellectual works. Illustrated with examples, it presents the critical role of bibliography in scientific advancement and the ongoing communication between authors, readers, and scholars.
