- Goals of this evolving Música latina authority file include:
- to provide name authority data for library cataloging purposes
- to serve as an authoritative reference work
- to aid in selection of materials
- to call attention to the crisis situation in cataloging
- to be an agent for positive change

Introduction
- The following is intended as an alternative name authority file to be used
in the cataloging of sound recordings of Hispanic popular music. It may
also prove useful for reference and as a selection aid for library sound
collections. Though content is restricted primarily to the world of
current popular music, names of some other entertainers will be found.
- There has been a need for such a combination reference work/authority file for some
time since national (U.S.) sources of bibliographic and authority data seldom
provide adequate data for cataloging these materials, or for
use with Hispanic audiences. This should be obvious by comparing the
many differences between the data presented here and that found in many
library databases. Libraries hoping to provide even minimum level
cataloging data will find it necessary to go beyond the limitations found
in today's cataloging environment. Libraries depending on the national
name authority file (cited as NAF in some of the entries here) will find NAF
to be a real barrier to the provision of adequate library services because
of the incomplete and inaccurate nature of so much of the Hispanic materials
data contained there. Given the current institutional
environment with its strong, deeply ingrained resistance to reform, it would
be unrealistic to expect NAF to develop into a viable cataloging tool for these materials.
Hopefully this new authority file will provide libraries a tool with which
to begin anew in a quest to provide adequate library services for Hispanic audiences.
- Library catalogs can send positive messages to users. Catalogs
and collections showing awareness and respect for the language
and culture of users should be goals of all libraries serving
Hispanic communities. There is no reason libraries can't develop
such services; indeed, learning to use existing resources wisely, working
cooperatively in effective ways, implementing working, library
specific commitments to diversity, and reacting to changing needs and
conditions should be imperatives for today's libraries. Hispanic
audiences deserve quality library services, and the ideas, technology, and
skills to support vastly improved, potentially self-supporting programs
are available. Let us provide these programs.

Introducción
- En este documento electrónico intento ofrecer una lista de nombres
para bibliotecarios (especialmente los que se dedican a la
catalogación) y otros que necesitan información
básica sobre las personas y grupos que forman parte del mundo
de entretenimiento latino, principalmente en el campo de la música
popular de norteamérica de los años recientes.
Además de los nombres, si es posible, país de origen,
al menos una obra citada (CIT), año de nacimiento, etc. Referencias desde nombres alternativos: una x debajo de un nombre
significa un nombre alternativo o no usado en esta lista. Para algunos
nombres ofrezco reseñas, o sugerencias para elegir materias.
- Las fuentes tradicionales para bibliotecarios carecen de ese tipo de
información, o caracen de información confiable. La falta de
información es, por supuesto, un reflejo de otros problemas de las
bibliotecas: la falta de empleados bilingьes y biculturales de habla
hispana, y la falta de materias y servicios adecuados para la
población estadounidense de habla hispana.
- Aunque nuestras reglas para la catalogación sean adecuadas para
crear información bibliográfica adecuada en español, y hasta exigen
tal creación, no tenemos información adecuada. Con este
documento espero llamar la atención a las condiciones actuales, y
ser un impulso para cambios positivos. Este es un documento en
desarrollo.
Sobre el autor
- Soy bibliotecario de habla hispana con mucha experiencia en la
catalogación de materias en español. No me considero un experto en
la música latina (pero sí soy músico y aficionado de la música latina)
y mucho menos un escolar del idioma, pero mis experiencias me dan la
seguridad de saber que la información ofrecida es importante y
necesitada. Soy participante en los sistemas nacionales (EEUU) para
información bibliográfica, pero con el tiempo me he dado
cuenta de que sería de más utilidad crear un nuevo recurso
en vez de intentar salvar los sistemas actuales que se encuentran
en un estado deplorable de crisis bibliográfica en el campo de
la música popular. Espero evitar los problemas vistos en otros
sistemas con un control adecuado de calidad, pero también
reconozco que una lista totalmente sin errores no será posible.
Genre codes: C=Classical; F=Folk; J=Jazz; MR=Mariachi; P=Pop; R=Rock; SW=SpokenWord; TM=TexMex; TR=Tropical
NOTE: Genre codes are offered as a general guide; though many performers qualify for additional codes, for most just one or two codes are assigned
