serial documents Alexis Salisz 18 Apr 1991 16:36 UTC

I have recently been assigned the task of figuring out how to process
government documents online. We are a NOTIS library in a consortium
setting, a member of DALNET. Our documents records are tape loaded. My
first task is to figure out how to handle the non-periodical serials.
Has anyone done this already? Do you create vhld's and opr's? Or do you
check-in on vhld's only? Do you create and maintain LDR's on OCLC? Do you
do separate bib records for a title that has changed sudocs numbers, or
do additional copy statements with some kind of a linking note on the vhld?
Does anyone handle these docs as part of the serials operations? Any reply
would be much appreciated. Thank you.
