The development of the Italian rules follows a long tradition that has been able to sum up both international achievements and local specificity, albeit with a few contradictions.

Abstract

The development of the Italian rules follows a long tradition that has been able to sum up both international achievements and local specificity, albeit with a few contradictions. After the publication of RICA (1979), the lack of a permanent committee lead to a break in code revision as the need arose; we are now trying to make up for this break, a process that is not without delays and gaps. The objective is a code that can fit into the deep and safe channel of international cooperation and reconcile the local tradition with the need to harmonize with the international code of reference represented by AACR2. We consider the solution by the Spanish rules a very good one; before them, only Eva Verona with the Slavic code had succeeded in such a harmonization.
