Khurshid, Part 6
Bibliographical control
During his early career, Khurshid developed a liking for cataloging and indexing. He prepared two indexes of library literature published in or about Pakistan following the format of the famous H.W. Wilson’s Library Literature. He also began teaching basic and advanced cataloging and bibliography courses in which he emphasized following cataloging and indexing rules to the minutest detail. His greatest achievement in this area is the compilation of an annotated bibliography on Quaid–e–Azam Mohammed Ali Jinnah, published in two volumes in 1978–79. Commenting on this publication, Haider says that even if Khurshid had no other works to his credit, this bibliography alone would have given him the high regard which he holds in Pakistan librarianship today [7].
