Basic Serials Cataloging
Wednesday, December 2nd (9 a.m. to 5 p.m.), INCOLSA (Indianapolis)
~~~~~
The course is designed for those new to serials: beginning serials 
catalogers and technicians and monograph catalogers working with serials.

An SCCTP workshop.  This course provides the basic principles of serials 
cataloging for original and copy cataloging for print serials.  The 
course focuses on the elements contained in the CONSER standard record 
(CSR), including appropriate MARC 21 tagging, as well as problem-solving 
and decision-making relative to serials cataloging.
The course does not provide instructions for the MARC 21 format for 
holding data, advanced serials cataloging, or cataloging of electronic 
and special kinds of serials.
All materials are based on the CONSER standard record documentation, 
CONSER Editing Guide, and CONSER Cataloging Manual.

Advanced Serials Cataloging
Thursday, December 3rd (9 a.m. to 5 p.m.), INCOLSA (Indianapolis)
~~~~~
The course is designed for people who have at least taken the 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 instructor will not have sufficient time to review basic 
serials cataloging.

An SCCTP workshop.  The Advanced Serials Cataloging Workshop is an 
in-depth course on the rules and practices applied to original 
cataloging of serials.  However, there are no specific instructions for 
electronic serials included in this workshop.  While the course focuses 
on printed serials, the instructions are applicable to serials in any 
format.

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, commutations, 
reprints, microform reproductions, and conference publications
* Major and minor changes, particularly what constitutes a major title 
change in the revised rules
* Discussion of how serial records are used in libraries ands displayed 
in library OPACs
