Abstract: Based on user inquiry and the convenience of resource management, some libraries used CNMARC as the basic template to record the data information of New Year wood-block painting in a
machine-readable format. As the title information of New Year wood-block painting is relatively complicated, cataloging personnel often need to combine the content and structure of the paintings, the format, size, order, meaning, usage and other elements of the text information to determine the title information of the New Year pictures. They also need to clarify the hierarchical relationship between the titles, according to the description rules, to reflect the complex title information in the specific fields and to provide users with multi-faceted title retrieval. This article sorts out and introduces the selection and description of the title information of various types of New Year wood-block painting, highlights the practical significance, and hopes to provide reference for relevant colleagues and to discuss together.

Key words: New Year wood-block painting, Title, Selection, Description
