ALCTS webinar: E-Books via the Cataloging in Publication Program

Date: Wednesday, October 21, 2015

All webinars are one hour in length and begin at 11am Pacific, noon
Mountain, 1pm Central, and 2pm Eastern time.

Description: The Cataloging in Publication (CIP) Program is now accepting
e-books from major U.S. publishers to help build the Library of Congress’
collections. This is a major step forward in management of e-book
collections at the Library of Congress as the process for ingesting CIP
e-books will be used as a model for acquiring e-books from other
acquisitions sources. The presentation will discuss all elements of the CIP
E-Books Program, including the application process, publisher
participation, e-book metadata creation, and ingestion of the e-books into
the Library’s Content Transfer System to add to the Library’s collections.

Learning outcomes: Attendees will become more knowledgeable about e-book
metadata and ingestion workflows in a large library setting and how to
identify high-quality pre-publication e-book metadata in bibliographic
utilities.

Who should attend? Metadata librarians and e-resources librarians of all
types of libraries.

Presenters:

Caroline Saccucci is the Dewey Program Manager in the U.S., Programs, Law
and Literature Division. She is also currently the Acting CIP Program
Manager and was formerly a CIP program specialist. She is an active member
of the American Library Association and serves as Chair of the ALC Public
Libraries Technical Services Interest Group and Dewey Section Liaison to
the ALCTS Cataloging and Metadata Management Section Subject Analysis
Committee.

Camilla Williams is a Program Specialist in the Cataloging in Publication
Program. Her responsibilities include responding to inquiries from
publishers and cataloging staff, recruiting and training new libraries and
institutions to the ECIP Cataloging Partnership Program, and participating
in new automated and metadata initiatives. She is the primary contact for
the CIP E-Books Program, and regularly gives presentations about the
Program to the CIP Advisory Group and at the Library of Congress Exhibit at
ALA.
