Prof. S. R. Ranganathan: Bibliographic Control Operands

A document comprises of complex factors enmeshed in simplicity for end use, access and assimilation. It has a subject matter, literary matter, linguistic matter, magnetic attraction matter, and it has an encapsulation power to communicate, self-communicate and play back into self knowledge communicable to others. A document has the power to transform the mind of a person who devours it. But there lies a chain of events. It is an economic chain of bibliography of documents.
