This message is cross posted to several lists.  Please pardon the

As I mentioned in December 94, the hypertext version of the Internet
Resources for Cataloging will be announced when it is done.  Thanks
for Louis Rosenfeld, the President of the Argus Associates, Inc., who
made this hypertext version available on the University of Michigan
Libraries WWW server.

The URL for the HTML version is:
http://asa.ugl.lib.umich.edu/chdocs/libcat/libcat.html

The access was tested via Mosaic only.  If you find any problems
accessing the document via Lynx and Netscape, please notify me
through email: SHA@LAW.MISSOURI.EDU

Your comments are always welcome and appreciated.

Following is the introduction section of the INET guide ver. 3.01 and
hypertext ver. 1.0.  Access methods to ver. 3.01 of the guide are
listed at the end of the Introduction section.

INTRODUCTION

Acknowledgements:

 I want to thank Rebecca S. Guenther, LC's Senior MARC Standards
Specialist, for her responses to my questions about the 856 field.  I
would also like to thank Erik Jul, Communications Manager, Office of
Research of the OCLC, Inc., Susan M. Rabe, Collection Resources
Bibliographer of the Center for Research Libraries, and Ann Ercelawn,
Serials Cataloger, University of Vanderbilt, for sending me
suggestions and correct access information of some resources in this
guide to make this document more comprehensive and accurate.

What's in this guide?

 This guide covers description and location information of
cataloging-related Internet resources in sections:  (A). National
Libraries; (B). Professional Associations; (C). National
bibliographic utilities; (D). Local library systems; (E). Cataloging
tools and training resources; (F). Cataloging-related software; (G)
Appendix - Outline of the USMARC format 856 field; and, (H).
References.

What's New?

 Changes proposed in USMARC proposal no. 95-1 are incorporated into
the 856 fields of this guide. Three new subsections are added to this
version.  National Library of Medicine and National Agricultural
Library are appended to section (A) to form the new section "National
Libraries".  Another new subsection is Cataloging of Electronic
Resources appended to section (E).  Moreover, some sections are
reorganized to include new resources.

 Comments, suggestions, additions, and modifications are welcome.
Please send them to Vianne Sha, SHA@LAW.MISSOURI.EDU.  If you create
or compile any cataloging resource on Internet that you want to share
with other library staff, you are also welcome to send either the URL

next revision.
