Summary/Abstract: The article deals with conceptual development of cataloguing structure on the example of the Collection of Sound Recordings of the National Film Archive. First, it demonstrates the possibilities of describing and making interviews accessible through online presentations of foreign and domestic collections. It also presents two classification systems, the FIAF manual and the MARC 21 metadata standard, which served as the main sources of inspiration for the newly developed cataloguing structure. It was created for the registration of collection objects and their content. The article thus introduces the elements of description, fields related specifically to oral history and especially subject headings selected from the terminology of film historiography.
