Subject: Bib records for electronic resources

Sorry for the duplication of this question across multiple listservs, but
I would like to know the following:

Has any library created cataloging records for electronic serials
contained within electronic resources that you subscribe to
(e.g.individual bib records for each serial title contained in Project
Muse, Lexis/Nexis, OCLC FirstSearch, etc.)?  That is, have you either
keyed/downloaded new records; upgraded existing records; or batch-loaded
records (from a vendor or whatever) to provide the OPAC access and the 856
link to the resources?  If so, would you be willing to share your
experiences/details with us?

Thanks in advance.

Mitch
