Re: Multiple versions for remote access serials
Date: March 14th
How Many Records for Remote Access Serials?
Thanks to all who responded to our earlier posting. As
promised, we have prepared some hypothetical records for serials
issued in multiple *electronic document formats,* a term that
seems less problematic than *versions.* We selected two
different titles and cataloged each of them two different ways.
First we cataloged each title with all document formats
represented on one record. Then we created separate records for
different formats. We chose this approach partly as an
exercise in seeing how feasible each alternative was and what the
resulting records might look like, and also to stimulate as open
a discussion as possible. We remain aware of the possibility
that the one record approach might work best in some cases and
multiple records might be required in others.
Please note that in creating these *hypothetical* records we
have also had to create some new kinds of qualifiers and notes
and use some of the computer file fields newly available in the
serials format before policies and practices have been fully
worked out. So, please don't use these records as examples of
fully developed CONSER, LC, or ISSN practice. Finally, almost
all of these records are based on NSDP records, they do not
include subject headings and are encoding level *7.*
