The Serials Interest Group (SIG) and Technical Services Interest Group
(TSIG) of CLA (Canadian Library Association) are pleased to present a
1-day workshop on E-Serials Cataloguing.

This hands-on course is part of CONSER's Serials Cataloging Cooperative
Training Program and is designed as 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 the following sessions:

   * Cataloguing an online serial
   * Aggregations and packages
   * Online versions
   * Changes that affect cataloging
   * Case studies

*Instructor*: Peter Glenister - Bibliographic Services Librarian, Mount
Saint Vincent University Library
