ELECTRONIC RESOURCE CATALOGUING CHEAT SHEET J. McRee (Mac)Elrod
15 July 2010
With References to PCC Provider Neutral MARC Record Guide and other
guides.
http://www.loc.gov/catdir/pcc/bibco/PN-Guide.pdf
Comments on the PCC Guide:
The provider neutral e-monograph MARC record guide (combining
electronic SMD with collation of original) is a giant step forward
from the strange mix of carrier and content SMDs in AACR2 samples. It
is also a return to AACR2 in cataloguing the item in hand not using 533.
The advice not to use 256 computer file characteristics is also good.
But its provisions differ in some ways from those SLC clients have
come to prefer.
The provision for 020 ISBN agrees with SLC practice: 020$a for the
electronic ISBN, and 020$z for the print ISBN. MARC21 has the same
provision for 010 LCCN, but that practice is not suggested. The Guide
suggests print LCCN be entered in 776$w. The Guide also advises
against the use of 530 for other format availability, which our
clients like.
Where there can be electronic vendor added value, making the
electronic version a different edition from the same work provided by
another vendor, we have found combining the print and electronic
imprint information helpful; the print publisher in 260$a$b$c, and the
electronic publisher in 260$e$f$g. This is of course not a provider
neutral record, since there would be only one provider of such an
enhanced resource.
The SMD "online resource" is too general, applying to electronic
texts, websites, computer games, streaming video, etc. The use of
the term "online resource" duplicates that term in MARC21 338 carrier
type, and will be redundant when that field is entered. The carrier
type and SMD terms need not agree, e.g., "computer disc" in 338, and
"CD-ROM" in 300.
Our clients find cut and pasted 505 contents, and 520 abstracts, to be
valuable, increasing the use of remote electronic resources, due to
the popularity of keyword searching.
Our clients find keywords assigned by authors to be helpful. We give
them in repeating 653.
At 830 series, the OCLC non acceptance of $xISSN is given as a reason
for not giving that information. We don't think nonstandard OCLC
limitations should determine cataloguing agency practice.
======================================================================
OLAC guide for playaways:
http://www.olacinc.org/drupal/capc_files/playawaysPDF.pdf
SLC considers 245$h[electronic resource] to be misleading, and,
prefers (in anticipation of RDA/MARC21 338/336) a compound GMD and
SMD, e.g., 245$h[equipment : sound recording], 300 $a1 MP3 :
performed music or : spoken word.
See at end of Slotmusic and other special guides.
=======================================================================
Suggested practices:
Create a separate record for print and electronic resources
(according to rules (AACR2 1998). This is primarily because the two
formats have different GMD (later 336-338) requirements. CONSER (a
group which sets standard for serials) allows electronic versions of
serials to be added to the print record. If adopted, this one record
practice should be limited to serials for which the library has both
the print and electronic forms, in order to have a unified holdings
record. It should never by used for electronic monographs,
particularly since the PCC provider neutral record guide.
The MARC field tags make a good checklist because they are more exact
than terms would be.
The current version of MARC used in North America, Australia and
increasingly in Europe is MARC21, a harmonization of USMARC. CANMARC
and UKMARC, with adaptations for Germany.
MARC records are composed of fixed (same place, same length) and
variable fields. Fixed fields are in a Leader, and in fields 006,
007, and 008. In bibliographic utilities and local systems these
fixed fields are often broken out into separate named elements for ease
of entry. In some software, they are given in small windows within a
larger window, one small window for each element. At first fixed
fields seem abstruse; soon more common ones will become second nature.
See the bibliographic utility's coding manual or MARC21 for codes not
included here.
Fixed Fields
LDR/06 (Type):
a = language material (used for text in electronic form)
k = two-dimensional nonprojectable graphic
m = computer file (limited to computer programs and games)
When a code other than "m" is given in LDR/06 for text or photographs
in electronic form, field 006/00 "m" and 007/00 "c" are used to record
the computer file aspect; 008 type information is recorded in 006, and
physical characteristics in 007.
With LDR/06 = a, 008/23 = s; with LDR/06 = k, 008/29 = s; to indicate
electronic; or o for online vs. q for physically inhouse.
LDR/07 (Bib lvl):
m = monograph
s = serial (see Serials Cataloguing Cheat Sheet)
i = integrating (i.e. a website)
LDR/17 (Enc lvl):
blank = full record item viewed
1 = full record item not viewed
2 = less than full record
i = OCLC full record } Prefer MARC21
k = OCLC less than full } codes
LDR/18 (Des cat form):
a = AACR/ISBD
006/00 (Additional material or characteristics):
m = computer file/electronic resource
s = serial/integrating resource
Other 008 type information in subsequent positions, e.g.:
09 (see 008 26) d = document
007/00 (Additional physical characteristics):
c = computer file
Physical characteristics may be recorded in subsequent positions,
e.g.:
01 b = chip
01 j = magnetic disk
01 m = magnetic-optical disc
01 o = optical disk
01 r = remote
008/06 (Date type):
s = single date
c = continuation (see Serial Cataloguing Cheat Sheet)
d = dead serial (see Serial Cataloguing Cheat Sheet)
m = multiple dates
n = unknown (try to use q and guess decade)
q = date in question, e.g. 194u
Most websites would be treated like loose-leaf services, i.e., Date
type = "m", date one = beginning date, and date two = "9999".
008/07-10 (Date one):
year of publication (s), or beginning (m)
008/11-14 (Date two):
year of ending (m)
use 9999 if still being produced, issued, or revised
008/15-17 (Country):
Use place of publication or location of website
at = Australia
optical = England
fr = France
gw = Germany
it = Italy
ja = Japan
States (U.S.):
alu aku azu aru cau cou ctu deu dcu flu gau
hiu idu ilu inu iau ksu kyu lau mau mdu meu
miu mnu mou msu mtu nbu ncu ndu nhu nju nmu
nvu nyu ohu oku oru pau riu scu sdu tnu txu
utu vau vtu wau wiu wvu wyu
xxu = United States, state unknown
Provinces (Canada):
abc bcc mbc nfc nbc nsc ntc nuc onc pic quc snc ykc
xxc = Canada, province unknown
008/18-21 (Illus. for monographs; up to four codes may be used)
a = illustrated
b = maps*
c = ports*
d = charts*
e = plans*
f = plates
g = music*
h = facsims*
i = coats of arms
j = geneological tables
k = forms*
o = photographs
use also in 300 field
008/18 (Frequency for continuations)
integrating resource
a = annual
d = daily
k = continuously updated
u = unknown
see MARC221 for other frequency codes
008/19 (Regularity for continuations)
r = regular
u = unknown
see MARC21 for other codes
008/21 (Type of continuation)
m = monographic serial
n = newspaper
p = periodical
w = updating website
008/22 (Form of original continuation)
blank = not microform, etc.
s = electronic
008/23 (Form of item monograph and continuation)
One-character alphabetic code that specifies the form of material for
the item.
blank - None of the following
o - Online
q - Direct electronic
s - Electronic
| - No attempt to code
Codes "o" and "q" split the functionality previously covered by the single
code "s". This new coding was developed specifically to address concerns
over direct access (e.g, a CD-ROM) and remote access filtering of results.
An online resource on CD-ROM would be "q", while an online electronic
resource would be coded "o".
008/24 blank
008/25-27 (Cont):
a = abstracts, summaries
b = bibliographies (with 504)
c = catalogs

blank = not govt. pub.
i = international body (e.g. UNESCO)
f = federal
l = local (towns, counties)
s = state, province
w = website
008/30-33 blank for continuations
008/31 (Index):
0 = no index
1 = index
008/34 (Entry convention for continuation)
0 = successive
2 = integrating
008/35-37 (Lang):
language of text or predominate language
eng = English
fre = French
ger = German
spa = Spanish
008/39 (Source):
source of cataloging
blank = DLC
d = local library
Variable Fields
010 LCCN
Originally LC card order number; rarely present for original electronic
items.
Key in MARC record with three blank spaces in front, and 0's as
needed replacing "-", to equal 8 spaces. If the LCCN for the print
version, change 010$a to $z when cataloguing the electronic version.
The PCC provider neutral guide suggests 776$w for print LCCN, q.v.
016 National bibliographic agency control number other than LC
If for the print version, change 016$a to $z when cataloguing the
electronic version.
020 ISBN
International Standard Bibliographic Number (ISBN) is rarely
present for an original electronic item. In MARC record, key without
hyphens. If the ISBN for the print version, change $a to $z when
cataloguing the electronic version. Include the 10 and 13 digit
isbn in separate 020s. Older DLC records may have 13 digit ISBN
in 024.
022 ISSN
International Standard Serial Number (ISSN); rarely present for an
electronic item, but usually present for a print serial to which an
electronic serial might be added. In MARC record, key with central
hyphen.
040 Cataloguing agency
Field 040 says $a who catalogued; $b in which language (LAC records
only); $c who made it machine readable; and $d who finished the record.
Today originals are usually done in one operation online, but use 040
$aCaBNvSL$cCaBNvSL$dCaBNvSL (substitute your NUC code for SLC's) for
original records.
For derived records, leave in $b language code (may be used by a Quebec
library to determine display - aka print - constants generated by 246
indicators); repeat the 040$a code in $c if lacking; and add $dCaBNvSL
(or your code) at the end. MARC record checking software expects to
find at least subfields $a and $c. Remove any existing $d apart from
DLC.
041 Languages
Language codes for translated or multilingual works, Since
008/35-37 can contain only one code. See MARC21.
050 LCC
Library of Congress call number (LCC); In MARC record key
as 050 2nd indicator 0 (assigned at LC) or 4 (local), e.g.: 050 4
$aAB1234.5$b.D78 1998, or if two Cutters, 050 4 $aAB123.5.C6$bD78
1999. Note period for first Cutter, $b for second, both for one
Cutter, but only one of each. In OCLC records often in 090.
060 NLMC
National Library of Medicine call number.
082 DDC
Dewey Decimal call number (DDC); 2nd indicator 0 if assigned
by LC, 4 if local. Omit Cutter. Use " / " to indicate natural
breaks. In OCLC records, locally assigned DDC numbers plus Cutter
are keyed in 092.
090 Local call number.
MARC tag number varies with system. At SLC coded with slashes for
line breaks, e.g.:
090 0 $aAB/1234.5/C6/D78/1998$bMAIN$c1-2$d1-2 ($b = location,
$ccopies, $dvolumes)
In some OCLC records keyed like 050 and used for locally assigned LCC
numbers. Prefer 050 4 as MARC21 standard.
092 see 082.
100 Personal author
Author; if the work has three or fewer authors (and that is authors,
not compilers or editors) the first is given, surname first. A
compiler *is* the author of an index or bibliography however. Personal
authors are rare for electronic media apart from reproductions; most are
mixed responsibility. In MARC records key 1st indicator 1 for surname,
e.g.: 100 1 $aSmith, Jones,$d1932- The library's or LC's authority file
should be checked for this and all 1XX and 7XX fields to insure uniformity
for the same person or body.
With RDA, enter under first author, regardless of number.
110 Corporate author
If the work is the annual report of a corporate body, the report of a
task force, or some such, the corporate body is the author. There are
fewer corporate bodies as author (main entry) under current rules than
earlier.
In MARC records, key 1st indicator 1 for a corporate body which
begins with a jurisdiction, 2 for direct order, e.g.:
110 1 $aCanada.$bDept. of State. 110 2 $aCanadian Unitarian Council.
With RDA, entry for a treatise will be first country mentioned.
111 Conference
If what you have is conference proceedings, the name of the conference
is the author.
In a MARC record the name is followed by $d(number :$ddate
:$cPlace), or if no number, $d(date :$cPlace).
BUT 110$a 2 $aCorporate Name.$bConference$n( ...
130 Uniform title as main entry
If the work is a sacred work such as the Bible, that common title
(known as a uniform title) goes in 130. Some sacred works have
been digitized and are on the Web.. For the Bible you give language
and date. For parts of the Bible you start with Bible, e.g., in a MARC
record:
130 $aBible.$pO.T.$pGenesis$lEnglish$f1995
With RDA, "N.T." and "O.T." will be omitted from between Bible and
name of book.
240 Uniform title
Uniform title as filing title; only after a 100 or 110. (Both 130
and 240 being called uniform title shows how MARC works as a check
list better than words.) For classical music, laws, and very voluminous
authors like Shakespeare, most libraries have a title which brings the
same works together. To construct one, best look at some in the
catalogue for examples (as with 130s). They will be very rare for
electronic media. While the uniform title is displayed in square
brackets, do not use square brackets for the MARC record.
For SLC, enter the original title of a translation as 246 1 $aTranslation
of:, as opposed to 240.
245 Title
The title as in the title frame, or most complete source nearest
the material; use a ":$b" before subtitles, "=$b" before a title in
another language; followed by "/$c" and up to three authors in
present. If more than three, give the first followed by "... [et
al.]." (The title is the main entry in this case, i.e., no 100 or
110.) If they did different things, use a ";", e.g. /$ccreated by
John Smith ; examples by Tim Jones. Only the first word and proper
names are capitalized.
With RDA. all authors are recorded in 245 .$c regardless of number,
and first given is main entry.
Names of Acts are proper names. All German nouns are capitalized.
In a MARC record, use 1st indicator 0 for title main entry, 1
(for title added entry) if there is a 1XX, 2nd indicator for number
of spaces to be skipped in filing, e.g., A = 2, An = 3, and The - 4,
because of the space following the initial article, e.g.: 245 04 $aThe
North American directory of hermits, churls, and curmudgeons$h[electronic
resource] :$ba guide to the reclusive /$cedited by Tom Jones.
It is SLC practice, contrary to SLC, to use ",$bor" for alternate
titles.
245$h[general material designation]
If the item is nonbook, a general material designation follows the
first title proper. It is enclosed in square brackets. (Some old
OCLC records will be found without the brackets.) All electronic
resources now have the GMD $h[electronic resource]. The GMD
$h[interactive multimedia] was proposed, but never adopted.
Some libraries (extra AACR2) qualify the GMD, e.g., $h[electronic
resource (CD-ROM)], $h[electronic resource (website)].
When there is a GMD, there should also be an SMD. See 300.
246 Alternate title
Alternate title which represents the whole work, e.g.: 246 31
$aParallel title 246 14 $aCover title 246 15 $aAdded title page
title 246 1 $iAt head of title:$aPhrase at head of title 1st indicator
3 means added entry, no note; 1st indicator 1 means added entry and
note; the second indicator says which print constant to use for the
note; if no print constant is available, use $i$a as shown.
247 Former title
Former title of a website, the title of which has changed.
250 Edition
e.g.,
2nd ed., Rev. ed., English ed., ASCII ed. If an author created
edition, you would enter after /$b.
256 Computer file characteristics
e.g.,
Computer data (# of files), Computer program (# of files).
Prefer field 516.
The PCC provider neutral records guide suggests this field not
be used.
260 Imprint
e.g.,
260 $aChicago, Ill. :$bUniversity of Chicago,$c2000-
If aggregator differs from publisher, this form may be used, e.g:
260 $a<Place :$bPublisher,$cDate>$e(Saint-Lazare, Quebec :$fGibson
Library Connections,$g2006.) This is particularly appropriate
is there is added value which makes the particular electronic
version a separate manifestation.
The PCC provider neutral guide suggests no mention of provider.
LC/PCC have implemented MARC21 repeating 260:
<http://www.oclc.org/us/en/support/documentation/worldcat/tb/257/257.pdf>
It is SLC policy to have only one 260. Following AACR2, that 260
will be the current publisher of websites; contra AACR2, current
publisher of serials and sets-in-progress. Earlier publishers are in
503, exported as 500 for any client who does not wish this obsolete
field.
300 Collation
When there is a GMD, there is required for physical items,
and best for all items, an SMD (specific material designation) following
the number, e.g., for a CD-ROM:
300 $a1 CD-ROM :$bcol. ill. ;$c4 1/2 in.
Older records have 1 computer optical disc. and prior to that, computer
laser optical disc.
It is best to always supply a 300 in order to have an SMD., e.g.:
300 $a1 website (text, animated col. ill. <and/or whatever>)
:$bdigital files.
300 $a1 electronic text (<#> p, : <ill.>) :$bdigital file.
300 $a1 streaming video (30 min.) :$bcol. :$bdigital file.
The PCC provider neutral record guide suggests "1 online
resource" followed by collation of original in curves for electronic
monographs, e.g., 300 $a1 online resource (<#> p.) :$bill. The
term "online resource" would duplicate RDA/MARC21 338, and is not
specific enough; use "electronic text", "website", "streaming video",
"computer program", etc.
Use the most popular term for new physical media, e.g.:
300 $a1 compact flash chip (200 photographs) :$bdigital file.
300 $a1 miniCD-ROM (col. ill.) ;$c6 x 8 cm.
If the miniCD-ROM says "Business card CD-R", or "Shaped CD-R" on
the item or container, give as a 500 quoted note.
Describe the item in the SMD, not the content, e.g. have "map" or
"maps" in curves following the SMD, not as the SMD, for a PDF file
of map(s); AACR2 mixed examples not withstanding.
Older records often lack 300 for remote electronic resources.
Cf. field 516.
336-338 See at end.
Websites are rarely part of a series, but CD-ROMS and PDFs often are.
440 Series as on item and traced (obsolete)
490 Series as on item.
Beginning June 1, 2006, the US Library of Congress is coding all
series as 490 0.
It has been SLC policy since January of 1979 to have no 490 0 in
bibliographic records. (Some but not all SLC customers index 490
in their series and/or title indexes, making access uneven between
customers.) When you encounter a 490 0, and it contains no subject
word, or a responsible corporate body or person, e.g., "Penguin
books", change the 490 0 to a 500 quoted pseudo series statement.
If the 490 0 transcribed series statement contains a subject word,
e.g., "Studies in chemistry", change the 490 0 to 490 1, and enter
the series in 830 with 2nd filing indicator 0-4. If the series title
is generic, e.g., "Report" or "Works", and has been established in
either the LC or LAC authority files, add the name of the responsible
body or person in curves.
Provide ";$v" issue number or year as relevant. Include ISSN in $x
if available.
All series changed from 490 0 will be under title; SLC will not
create 800/810/811. for current LC derived or original cataloguing.
Those headings in legacy and Amicus records will be left unchanged,
but 830 for the 8XX$t will be added for the benefit of customers who
do not index 8XX$t.
500 Notes
General notes. There are also specific notes. As a beginner, if
you see something which seems helpful on the title page, just quote it,
e.g., 500 $a"Your complete information resource."
Some other common notes include:
502 Thesis, e.g., Thesis (PhD)--Podunk University, 1995.
503 Bibliographic history
Now obsolete in MARC21, but still used by SLC, e.g., for the earlier
publisher of a website.
504 Includes bibliographical references (p. ) and index.
But if index only, 500 $aIncludes index.
505 Contents
Cut and pasted contents from a PDF table of contents greatly increases
the use of the item due to keyword search.
506 Restrictions on access.
If access is limited, it may be noted here,
e.g.,
Access limited to faculty and registered students of X Institution.
Such restrictions are applied by the vendor when a paid license is
required for use of the resource.
The PCC provider neutral record guide suggests that this field
not be used, since it may vary from provider to provider.
508 Non cast credits
510 Citation/References
Some find where the material is indexed helpful, one indexer
per 510.
511 Cast credits
516 Type of computer file
e.g., Text (Law reports), Numeric (Statistics).
518 Where and when an event was held
520 Summary or Abstract.
Our clients tell us that inclusion of summaries or abstracts increases
use due to keyword searching. But if quoting with "--<source>", we
attempt to screen out publisher's "puff" adjectives substituting
"...", and just include the parts which actually tell you something
about the item. When cataloguing an electronic resource from a PDF,
there is often a summary or abstract which can be cut and pasted.
525 How updated
e.g.,
Additional material added monthly.
530 Other version available
If the electronic resource you are cataloguing also exists in print
form, that could be noted here, e.g.:
530 $aAlso available in print from <Publisher>.
533 Reproduction.
If the original version is described in 1XX-4XX (following LC practice),
the imprint information of the electronic reproduction is given here.
That is contrary to AACR2 as well as Library and Archives Canada
practice, and SLC preferred practice. The provider of electronic
monographs and records ebrary still uses 533 for electronic monographs.
The PCC provider neutral record guide suggest that this field not
be used.
534 Original version.
If the electronic resource you are cataloguing is a reproduction of a
print version, the print version imprint information may be given here.
See also 776.
The PCC provider neutral record guide suggest the original be
described in linking field 776 (q.v.), even if the print record is not
in the catalogue for linking. Field 530 for the availability of the
print version is more suited to most OPACs.
538 Systems details note.
Records the requirements for use, e.g.:
538 $aRequires IBM 360 or 370; 9K bytes of internal memory; OS SVS
and OSM VS.
538 $aLinks require Internet access and Adobe Acrobat Reader.
For an online resource, the URL may be in 538$u. See also 856.
Most libraries prefer this as first note.
The PCC provider neutral record guide suggests that this field not be
used, since it might differ among providers.
540 Restrictions on use
Restrictions on use once access has been gained. It might be best
to not use this field, but rather record all restrictions in 506,
particularly if notes are arranged in tag order in your OPAC. The
numbering sequence given notes by MARBI (the group responsible for MARC)
bear no resemblance to either AACR or common sense.
The PCC provider neutral record guide would not have 506 or 540.
546 Languages
e.g.,
Text in English and French.
588 Source of description.
For example, "Title from container.", "Last issue consulted: ...".
6XX Subjects.
In MARC records, subject subdivisions have subfield codes:
$xTopic, $yPeriod, $zPlace, $vGenre.
600 Person as subject
In same format as person as 100 author.
610 Corporate body as subject
including governments. In same format as 110.
611 Conference as subject.
In same format as 111.
630 Uniform title as subject.
650 Topic as subject
e.g.:
650 0 $aChemistry$vElectronic information resources.
650 0 $aChemsitry$xPeriodicals$v$vElectronic information resources.
651 Place as subject
But not governments, e.g.:
651 0 $aCanada$xHistory$y1755-1763$vElectronic information resources.
653 Key words
Often authors assign keywords, sometimes at the end of the abstract.
These may be recorded in 653, one term per occurrence.
655 Genre
What the item is, e.g.:
655 0 $aElectronic information resources.
700 Person as added entry
e..g., the 2nd and 3rd of three authors, the first of more than three,
editors.
With RDA, number of added author entries is not restricted.
710 Corporate body as added entry.
Same format as 110.
The PCC provider neutral record guide suggests no added entry for
provider.
711 Conference as added entry.
Same format as 111.
740 Title added entry
Now in MARC titles which represent the whole work are coded 246, while
titles which represent part of the work or a related work, are here.
776 Additional physical form entry
The PCC provider neutral record guide suggests that the print original
of an electronic reproduction be recorded here. If the full form is
not desired, it may be abbreviated, e.g.:
776 $c(Original)$z<ISBN$w(DLC)<LCCN>, with LCCN justified as in 010.
830 Series entered in catalogue.
Series as in the resource s in 490 1st indicator 1, and series tracing
is here. PCC advises using the print version of the series, and not
qualifying as "(Electronic)" or "(Online)".
856 Electronic location and access.

0 = e-mail
1 = FTP
2 = Telnet
3 = Dial-up

RDA will introduce 336-338 replacing 245$h.
For ILSs not displaying 336-338, SLC will export as a compound 245$h,
245$h[338 carrier : 336 content], e.g., 245$h[online resource : text].
337 will not be exported.
For 336-338, only those terms relevant to electronic resources are
given.
336 Content
Fortunately we catalogue very little cartographic material, we we will
not be affected by that too wordy list of terms. As usual, music
cataloguers have achieved a sensible, patron friendly, list of terms.

337 Media Type
We've substituted ISBD Area 0 "Electronic" for RDA's "Computer". Our
patrons would think we were describing a piece of equipment, if we
used that term. We would only export 337 on request.
