The Advanced Serials Cataloging Workshop is an in-depth course on the rules and practices applied to original cataloging of serials. The course focuses on printed serials but the instructions are applicable to serials in any format. The workshop does not include specific instructions for electronic serials.
Course topics include:
- What is a serial in the revised scope of AACR2 and how do serials compare to monographs and integrating resources
- An area-by-area approach to the cataloging of serials, including some of the more complex aspects: uniform titles, links, designations, and title transcription
- Cataloging of special kinds of serials: supplements, cumulations, reprints, microform reproductions, and conference publications
- Major and minor changes to AACR2, 2nd ed., particularly what constitutes a major title change in the revised rules
- Discussion of how serial records are used in libraries and displayed in library OPACs
Audience
The course is designed for people who have at least taken the SCCTP Basic Serials Cataloging Workshop or who have been active serials catalogers for more than one year and are familiar with MARC serials tagging and fundamental approaches to serials cataloging. While attendees who do not have this background in serials may find parts of the workshop useful, the instructors will not have sufficient time to review basic serials cataloging.
Contact hours
The course is a two-day workshop, consisting of 6.5 hours each day for a total of 13 contact hours. It combines lecture with exercises and time for questions, answers and discussion.
