In this paper we outline the evolving process of the cataloguing rules in Korea focused on the standardization. We analyzed the new and updated rules under the KCR4(Korean Cataloguing Rules, 4th edition) in terms of usability of the catalogue. Our findings can be summarized as follows: ① Since there are the rules of the unlimited number of the statement of responsibility, the access point is expanded and may bring the high searchability as a result, ② Since the rules of the general material designations are added, the catalogue users may easily identify the material, ③ Since the rules of the material specific details area are added, the catalogue users may easily understand the characteristics and other features of a publication, ④ The KCR4 seems a kind of the integrated cataloguing rules for diverse types of materials including the monographs, ⑤ Since the rules of choice and forms of the access point treated in the authority control, there seem some problems in usability of the catalogue, ⑥ The concept of the uniform heading is eliminated which seems considered only for the convenience of the cataloguers not for usability of the catalogue.
