Mankato, MN

Description: The Electronic Serials Cataloging Workshop is a hands-on
training course for cataloging electronic serials distributed through
the Web. This workshop is based on Anglo-American Cataloging Rules
(AACR), 2nd edition, including the 2001 amendments and the revised
edition published in 2002. It incorporates key revisions of chapter 9,
"Electronic resources" and chapter 12 "Continuing resources" that apply
to electronic serials, but is not a comprehensive course on serials
cataloging. The course is also based on Library of Congress Rule
Interpretations, the MARC 21 format, and CONSER specific policies and
practices set forth in the CONSER Cataloging Manual and CONSER Editing
Guide.

The curriculum includes six sessions:
* Introduction
* Cataloging an online serial
* Aggregations and packages
* Online versions
* Changes that effect cataloging
* Case studies

Who should Attend? Experienced serials catalogers or those who have
attended the SCCTP Basic Serials Cataloging workshop.
