A PowerPoint presentation given at the British Columbia Library Association conference on April 22, 2010. The presentation compares examples of cataloging using AACR2 (Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules, 2nd edition) with RDA (Resource Description & Access) and shows how records will be coded in MARC 21.
This session examines the challenging task of increasing the discoverability and access to subscription e-book collections. It will consider tools, workflows, best practices and standards for cataloguing and maintaining library e-book collections. Specific topics will include library-specific workflows, including global update and MarcEdit, challenges and possible solutions for working with batch files of e-book records, and Provider-Neutral E-Monograph Record guidelines, as well as future directions such as ONIX publisher metadata.
