The ALCTS CCS/MAGERT Map Cataloging Discussion Group will continue its ALA
Midwinter '98 topic, the cataloging of cartographic CD-ROMs and computer
disks, at the '98 Annual ALA Conference in D.C.  Examples will be provided
to stimulate discussion of notes for electronic cartographic resources
plus whether a mixed-media collection containing electronic cartographic
resources was appropriately cataloged as a kit.  Please bring your own
questions, comments and examples, too.  If time and interest allow, we'll
discuss LCs Guidelines for Distinguishing Cartographic Materials on
Computer File Carriers from other Materials on Computer File Carriers
(see: http://lcweb.loc.gov/marc/cfmap.html).  Are you using the
Guidelines?  What is your opinion of them?
 
The Maps Cataloging Discussion Group provides a forum for both beginning
and expert maps catalogers to discuss the basic issues relating to
bibliographic control of maps and related materials.
 
Meeting time and place:
Sunday, June 28, 8:00-9:00 a.m. in the Oak Room at the Washington
Courtyard.
