STANDING COMMITTEE ON AUTOMATIONQuarterly Report2005 Q2 Monographic Aggregator Task Group This task group is charged to "Develop a reference guide that lists the required data elements for machine-derived and machine-generated monographic records. The guide should include practical and detailed guidelines for application." The task group submitted an interim report in 2005 Q1. This report indicated that the task group had a number of questions and requests for guidance that will need to be addressed prior to finalizing the reference guide. On behalf of the task group, Becky Culbertson brought several of these issues before the BIBCO OpCo meeting on May 6th BIBCO OpCo 2005 Summary.
