Re: Cataloging IEEE electronic proceedings

I've seen this, and it worked in reality, so thought I'd pass it on...
You can create serial records without multiple URLS for IEEE
proceedings:
Some records use the "IEEEexplore" URL in combination with a suggested
search strategy in $z, which would work to retrieve all conferences with
the same title:
856 41 ... $u http://ieeexplore.ieee.org/Xplore/conferences.jsp $z
Search: [title keywords]
