(due October 19, 2011)

 

Read AACR chapters 9 & 12 and the associated LCRIs at http://www2.hawaii.edu/~chopey/606LCRI.htm. 

 

Also refer to the CONSER documentation in Module 0 and Module 31 of the CONSER cataloging manual and these excerpts from CCM and the CONSER editing guide about frequency.

 

Consult OCLC bibliographic formats and standards for instructions on how to enter data in the appropriate bibliographic data fields. 

 

Some more hints and guidelines for this assignment can be found here.

 

In this assignment you will be cataloging an electronic continuing resource (i.e., an e-journal).  You will need to consult the rules in chapters 12, 9, and 1 and their LCRIs, and whatever rules in part II of AACR2 might apply to this.  You'll be assigning an LC call # and LC subject headings.  

Please use the OCLC Connexion client to construct a full-level MARC bibliographic record (Encoding level=I), including all appropriate access points including any applicable main and added entries, LC subject headings, and LC call number.   Be sure to check the authority file for the correct form of any name or subject heading you use in your record.  If any name headings are needed that are not already established in the authority file, construct the headings according to the rules in ch. 22 & 24, and create authority records for them on this workform per the instructions and guidelines in Assignment 5.

 

In fixed field, Elvl=I and Source=d.  Fill in all fixed field (008) bytes with the appropriate value (cf. OCLC bibliographic formats and standards)

 

Use HUI as your agency code in 040 $a and $c.

 

Your bibliographic record should include all of the following fields, if applicable, and any others that may be applicable:
