E-book Cataloging Kathryn Lybarger Third Thursday February 20, 2014
Where do e-book records come from? Or e-books for that matter?
Firm orders • Title-by-title ordering • Ordered through GOBI, like print books • Provisional record in Voyager
Approvals • Titles selected according to a profile • Currently do graduate and undergraduate • Typically no provisional record in Voyager
Packages • We can buy/pay for access to (for example): • Springer Ebooks 2010 • Knovel Academic – Metals and Metallurgy • McGraw-Hill’s AccessMedicine • To get MARC records • Download MARC from vendor site • WorldCat Collection Set • Title updates/RSS from vendor site • A-Z list from vendor site • Export from SFX
Deposits • Government Documents • Marcive • (Packages) • Electronic Theses and Dissertations • Original cataloging • Kentucky Transportation Center reports • Also in Uknowledge • (some copy, some original)
Free!! • We don’t typically catalog free resources unless they are specifically selected • Some resources are free / open access to the public, though we do pay for them • Example: • We cataloged ARL SPEC Kits from HathiTrust when we sent our print copies to storage
In-House Digitization • Common workflow: • Catalog the print • Provide metadata to load books into KDL • Cataloging for e-book version
(Title-by-title) Cataloging • Select or create records • Confirm matching record • Confirm correct format • Set holdings in OCLC • Bring records into Voyager • Make local edits
Copy Cataloging e-books • Look at the actual title page (if you can get to it) • Do these fields match? • Author (1XX, 7XX, 245 ǂc) • Title (245) • Edition (250) • Publisher (260/264) • Date (260 ǂc) • Pagination (300 ǂa) • Format… • That would be nice, but…
Difficulties in matching records • Title • May not have access to true title page, just metadata • Author • Not all authors may be listed • Edition • May not be listed
More difficulties… • Date • May be off by a year or so • Publisher • May list e-book vendor, or its host • Pagination • Book may be reformatted • One giant page per chapter • A searchable database
More difficulties… • Format • What does an e-book record look like? • Which versions can share a record? • Print and e-book? • Kindle and online? • Springer and EbscoHost?
Which aspect to focus on?E or books? • Should it be more readily grouped with other books or other computer files? • (How will people discover it?) • Should more of its book-like properties or its computer-like properties be more easily indexed/searchable?
E-books are books • Most description is very similar to that of the print book • Computer file type is used more for computer programs and data sets
Recognizing ebook records • Form fixed field • o – online resource (most common) • s – electronic resource (older code) • q – direct access (flash drive, etc.)
GMD • General Material Designator • 245 ǂh • Not part of the RDA standard • Not present for typical books • Common GMDs • [electronic resource] • [videorecording] • [sound recording]

Local standards: Ezproxy • If an e-book is restricted/only available from on campus, add this prefix to the beginning of the URL: • http://ezproxy.uky.edu/login?url= • If anyone tries to access the book from home, they will be prompted to login with their LinkBlue account
Local standards: Notes • 538 __ ǂa Mode of access: World Wide Web. • (for consistency in the catalog) • 506 __ ǂa Restricted to subscribers. • 506 __ ǂaAccess restricted to the College of Law library community. • (add only when it is very specific!)

That’s a lot to add! • In Connexion, you can use Constant Data:
Local standards: Holdings • Create only one MFHD, even if we have the ebook from multiple vendors
Local standards: Item records • Create only one item, even if there are multiple volumes of an ebook
Demand-Driven Acquisitions (DDA) • We load “discovery records” (without buying the e-books first) • These are still from a restricted pool (slips) • Patrons show us what is useful by actually using it • Patrons can’t easily tell any difference from the OPAC or the e-book itself
