Task Group on Distribution of Integrating Resource Records
Statement of Purpose:
This Task Group is being formed to examine methods for record distribution
called for in recommendation 4.5 from the Final
Report of the Task Group on Implementation of Integrating Resources. The
desired end result is that PCC records for integrating resources, whether they
be produced and maintained as part of the BIBCO program or as part of the CONSER
program, should be distributed. If a way can be found to do this without significant
disadvantages to either BIBCO or CONSER program participants, then the PCC
should move forward with it. But the desire to distribute all the records will
not trump the desire to continue to make both BIBCO and CONSER contribution
viable options.
Charge:
To propose methods for the creation and maintenance of PCC records for integrating
resources by BIBCO and CONSER participants, and for the distribution of PCC-authenticated
records through the Library of Congress' Catalog Distribution Service (CDS).
Proposed methods should include mechanisms for authenticating records in
OCLC, for collaborative maintenance of such authenticated records by both BIBCO
and CONSER catalogers, and for distribution of such records either as part
of the CONSER distribution or as a separate file. Methods should also allow
PCC catalogers to create non-authenticated records in both utilities and in
local systems, identifying them as Program records through an appropriate marker
in the 042 field.
The Task Force should define the expected outcome of non-authenticated Program
records created or maintained in local systems and batch-loaded to the utilities.
Timeline:
The Task Force should submit its recommendations to the Steering
Committee by September 30th, 2004 for consideration at the November 2004 PoCo
meeting.
