Studies in the interdisciplinary field and in the field of librarianship have shown that there are problems in this regard. Originality: Studies have been carried out in different fields related to the subject and in the field of librarianship. With this study, it was tried to shed light on the subject in terms of librarianship. Conclusion: Concepts are dealt with in terms of librarianship and the problems experienced in this field are evaluated in terms of cataloging and user.
