The three types of card catalogues are:

Author catalog - each card is arranged alphabetically according the last name(s) of the author(s).

Title catalog - each card is arranged alphabetically according the title of the item.

Subject catalog - each card is arranged alphabetically according the subject heading(s) of the item.

For example: If I were looking for a book titled, "The Life of Wombats", by Enid Purge, I could find it in the Authors' catalog under Purge; the Title catalog under "Life of  . . ." or the Subject catalog under whales.
