We have lots of piggybacked records and we are now in the process of migrating to another system, ALMA. All of our e-resources have been separated from the print resources in the new system, so if I was starting out, I would go with the separate record per format method.

Subject: [SERIALST] E-Journal cataloging

Hi,

Our print Serials collection is not in use right now, due to the pandemic. We are adding more individual e-journals, as students and faculty request them. I am wondering:

What are the benefits and drawbacks of separate e-journal catalog records vs. attaching the e-journal record to the print record?
How do you handle yours – separate records or not?
What are your workflows for successful individual e-journal cataloging?

I’m just starting out with managing individual e-journal subscriptions. Any cataloging tips would be appreciated.
