The Origins and Making of the ISBD: A Personal History, 1966–1978 [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
What follows are my memories of the events, starting almost five decades ago, that led to the International Standard for Bibliographic Description (ISBD)—still the most successful and widely used international cataloging standard in history. Many of the documents of the time were little more than ephemera (working papers and the like) and some are not now available to me. I have checked my recollections in all the documents to which I have access and apologize in advance for any errors of time or place. I also apologize for the, alas, unavoidable, given the nature of the essay, many repetitions of the words “I” and “me.”
