Current Bibliography

(more accurately, current index [listing or survey] of materials, according to GOST [State Standard] 16448–70 under “Bibliography: Terms and Definitions”). A current bibliography is an index of new works in print that appears regularly at set intervals, sometimes as a continuing publication. Current indexes are compiled according to types of printed matter, such as books, periodicals, sheet music, and maps. They may also be compiled according to areas of knowledge or individual subjects.
