Karl Franz Otto Dziatzko (1842-1903) was a German librarian and scholar, born in Neustadt, Silesia. He studied at the universities of Breslau and Bonn. He became librarian at the University of Freiburg in 1871, librarian at Breslau in 1872, and in 1886 librarian and professor of library science at Göttingen. Among his publications are a text edition of the comedies of Terence (1884); Instruktion für die Ordnung der Titel im alphabetischen Zettelkatalog der königlichen und Universitätsbibliothek zu Breslau (1886); and Untersuchungen über ausgewählte Kapitel des antiken Buchwesens (1900). The publication of 1886 is said to be the basis of K. A. Linderfelt's Eclectic Card Catalog Rules (Boston, 1890).
