The Monographic Cataloging Team provides full catalog records for all monographic materials included in the Library's collection, including, books, pamphlets, grey literature, electronic resources (eBooks and other materials), theses and dissertations, comic books, and DVDs, CDs and other media.
Additionally, the Cataloging Team is NACO (Name Authority Cooperative) certified for creation of name authority records for submittal to the Library of Congress, trained in music cataloging procedures (written and recorded), and responsible for digitizing submissions to the Digital Repository.
Collaboration with Serials Cataloging, Preservation, Acquisitions, Library Technologies and Public Services is imperative.
Monographic Cataloging is preparing for the upcoming conversion from AACR2 (Anglo American Cataloging Rules) to RDA (Resource Description and Access); researching the emerging requirements for cataloging electronic materials, and learning the intricacies of establishing and maintaining digital archives.
