Mixed responsibility in cataloguing refers to the situation where more than one entity is responsible for the creation or maintenance of a catalog record. This can occur in a variety of situations, such as when a library outsources cataloging to a vendor, or when multiple libraries collaborate to create a shared catalog. In these cases, the responsibility for the accuracy and completeness of the catalog record is shared among the different entities involved.3
