DATE: Saturday, January 10, 2004
TIME:   11:30AM-1:00PM
WHERE: Manchester Grand Hyatt, Manchester D

Please join the ALCTS Electronic Resources Discussion Group on Saturday,
January 10, 2004 from 11:30 a.m.-1:00 p.m. in the Manchester Grand Hyatt,
Manchester (Ballroom) D for two presentations on the topic of Electronic
Integrating Resources -- Rules and Implementation.

Steve Miller, Head, Monographs Department, University of
Wisconsin-Milwaukee Libraries will present an Overview of Cataloging
Integrating Resources. This presentation will give a concise overview of
the new concepts, cataloging rules, rule interpretations, and tagging
practice for electronic integrating resources (updating Web sites and
updating online databases), primarily from the perspective of current OCLC
record creation and tagging requirements.

John Riemer, Head, UCLA Cataloging Center, will discuss the implementation
issues related to this new cataloging workload. This includes background
from the PCC Task Group on Implementation of Integrating Resources, the
formal training that has been developed, reflections on the opportunities
these resources bring to cataloging departments, and what one research
library has done to implement IR cataloging.

Ample time for discussion following the presentations has been planned, and
participation by the audience is encouraged and welcomed.
