Web sites:

An 856 field for an electronic version of a print serial is included only if that version has been selected for subscription by CUL. If a Web site is cited in issues of a paper serial, check that it is a valid URL leading to an online version of the serial, supplementary or updating information, tables of contents or abstracts, etc. Then add a 530 field to the record for the paper version, such as, "Also available in an online version via the World Wide Web" or similar language describing the actual case. But give no URL unless the online version has been selected for subscription.

Do original cataloging in our local databaseOCLC Connexion. Place a printout of the bibliographic record in the CONSER bin in CMS.

No electronic resource records of any kind are being submitted to CONSER. In other some circumstances, a cataloger may decide not to contribute a Cornell original record to CONSER; for example, when a title that is "really" a monographic series is cataloged as a serial. The cataloger should consult with Laura Wright if there is any doubt about a particular item's suitability for CONSER.
