BASIC SERIALS CATALOGING WORKSHOP Serials Cooperative Cataloging Training Program (SCCTP) Instructors: Organizer / Dates
Workshop goals • Identify serials and distinguish them from monographs and integrating resources • Become familiar with MARC 21 tags used for serials • Create original serials cataloging records • Identify “appropriate” serial copy and needed edits
Session 1: Introduction • Where do serials fit in the world of continuing resources? • How does serials cataloging differ from the cataloging of monographs and integrating resources? • What are the current conventions and practices? • What tools are available?
Representation of Bibliographic Resources Finite resources Continuing resources Monographs Integrating resources Serials Multi-parts Updates remain discrete Updates do not remain discrete
Serials, Seriality, and Continuing Resources • Serials are one category of “continuing resource” • Integrating resources are the other category • Both exhibit seriality because they are issued or updated over time and can change • Because they are issued in a different manner, the cataloging rules for them differ
Serial Cataloging Records • Reflect the whole publication • Are dynamic because they incorporate changes over time • Are cooperative creations (e.g., one library may create the record, another may update it) • Are important to the overall control of the serial and often are essential to other records (holdings, check-in)
Successive Entry Cataloging • Convention applied to all serials cataloged according to AACR2 • Any major change results in the creation of a new (successive) record • Records are linked using 780/785 fields
