ORDER RECORD CREATION Anchor A3 A3
When ready to create a Voyager FOLIO record, export an appropriate catalog record from OCLC, if available, or create a preliminary record using the appropriate Voyager templatein Inventory. Preliminary records should include a title, publisher, and URL (if available). If the record in FOLIO is not in MARC, notify Pam Stansbury to request a MARC record.
Suppress the bibliographic and attached holdings record until a working link is provided and full access is confirmed. All proprietary (restricted) resource URLs must contain the "proxy" prefix (http://proxy.library.cornell.edu/login?url=). Create a PURL for integrating resources, and other resources as needed; refer to LTS Procedure #123. Purchase orders will be attached to order records.

This document provides local usage guidelines and examples for cataloging electronic resources in VoyagerFolio. For a complete list of field definitions, appropriate tags, and national standards, consult MARC21 and the Program for Cooperative Cataloging (PCC) for BIBCO and CONSER documentation.
While it is important for us to conform to both national standards and local policy, keep in mind that standards and policies for the cataloging of e-resources are still in flux a moving target and may change frequently.

Follow MARC21 bibliographic guidelines for the use of the 006, 007, and 008 fields. For networked resources, use an 007 for Electronic Resource, with "Specific Material Designation" set to "r" (remote). Code other bytes as appropriate.

Holdings and item records. Use the location "serv,remo" and "$k ONLINE" in the Mfhd 852 "Call number prefix" for all networked electronic resources. Additional access notes may be added to the "Holdings notes" field in the FOLIO holdings record.
Call number. Include $kONLINE. Use an An LC-type call number is required for Database Names resources only. An LC-style call number can be assigned to any eresource, per cataloger judgement. If the electronic resource is essentially a reproduction of a print version owned by Cornell, add the work letter "b" to the last element in the call number for the electronic version to distinguish it from the print call number. For unclassified resources, use the text "No call number" in 852 subfield h. Make sure the first indicator of the 852 is "8the "Call number" field. In these cases, make sure the Call number type" is "Other scheme".
