Hi,
Here are some quick thoughts. I'm sure there are other SERIALST colleagues who can think of others :-)

You might check out the ALA ALCTS Continuing Education list of webinars -
http://www.ala.org/alcts/confevents/past/webinar (these older webinars are freely accessible):

CONSER RDA Core Elements for Serials (Les Hawkins, presenter)

RDA and Serials Catalogers: Will Our Work Really Change? (Steve Shadle, presenter)

Ed Jones' monograph, RDA and Serials Cataloging, was published this year by ALA.
http://www.worldcat.org/title/rda-and-serials-cataloging/oclc/837922075

I was going to suggest looking at the CONSER web site and documentation at the Library of Congress, but unfortunately it's been shut off, due to the government shut down. The Library Corporation has made available the CONSER Cataloging Manual (http://www.itsmarc.com/crs/mergedprojects/conser/conser/contents.htm) and CONSER Editing Guide -- these versions show older (AACR2) processes.

Also, there have been many presentations at NASIG conferences over the years about cataloging processes for serials (for example, http://nasig.wordpress.com/2013/03/26/nasig-2013-program-highlights-rda-and-cataloging/), and these are covered in the NASIG Proceedings, which are published annually.

I often refer staff to OCLC's Bibliographic Formats and Standards, too, for a quick reference to the MARC record codes.

Best wishes,
- Birdie

After reading the NASIG Core Competencies for Electronic Resource Librarians, I realized that I need to improving my knowledge of the cataloging process for serials. I have a very basic understanding of cataloging from my graduate studies. Does anyone have advice about books, webinars or other resources that would be helpful?
