*Please join us for the ALCTS Continuing Resources Cataloging Committee
Annual Update Forum on Monday, June 25, 2007, 1:30-3:30 pm, at the JW
Marriott, Salon 2.*

Our agenda will include the usual CC:DA liaison,  CONSER and ISSN
reports, followed by a panel discussion on the future of continuing
resources cataloging and the need for change.   Three panelists, Diane
Boehr, Head of Cataloging at the National Library of Medicine; David
Bade, Monographic Cataloger at the University of Chicago; and Helen
Heinrich, Cataloging Coordinator at California State University,
Northridge will participate in a conversation on a variety of topics.
After a brief presentation on the following three topics by each
panelist, questions from the audience and interaction among the
panelists will be encouraged: 1. Do libraries need to change their
cataloging/metadata practice to accommodate the needs of other
communities in order to provide both title-level and article-level
access?  What might the implications of those changes be? 2. Should
continuing resources cataloging standards change to accommodate greater
use of non-library created data?  What can libraries do to increase our
flexibility and allow us to use vendor data in more effective ways? 3.
What is the possible role of the CONSER Standard Record in cataloging
standards evolution?
