Abstract

This pre-conference covered the first four sessions of the Serials Cataloging Cooperative Training Program’s Integrating Resources Cataloging Workshop, focusing on electronic resources. Steven Miller defined integrating resources and how to identify them. He then explained initial decisions to make when cataloging these resources. He covered the MARC fields and AACR2 rules that are unique for integrating resources and new to people accustomed to cataloging e-journals. Miller discussed how records should be updated to reflect changes in the resources, including how to update records created before the new rules. He concluded by discussing the difficulties of maintaining records for these resources. Recorder, Wendy Robertson.
