ALCTS webinar: The New CIP Data Block: How To Use It For Cataloging

Date: Wednesday, October 14, 2015

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

Description: In July 2015 the Library of Congress will implement a new
layout to the Cataloging in Publication Data Block which appears on the
verso of the title page of print books and on the Copyright page of
electronic books. The new layout is the result of an analysis of survey
results done in 2014 that asked institutions what should be kept, added, or
removed from the CIP Data Block to meet the needs of the twenty-first
century bibliographic environment. There are numerous changes to the layout
including the use of labels to clearly identify the different components
within the block, addition of RDA and electronic data elements, and a URL
that links directly to the LC catalog for easy download of bibliographic
records. This webinar will introduce attendees to the new CIP Data Block,
including instruction on how to interpret the elements of the Data Block
for cataloging purposes.

Learning outcomes: Attendees will become familiar with the CIP Data Block,
be informed of its data elements, and learn how to use it to create catalog
records.

Who should attend? Catalogers in smaller libraries, particularly school,
public, small college/community college, small special, and other libraries
where the CIP Data Block is still referred to for creation of bibliographic
records.

Presenters:

Karl Debus-Lopez is the Chief of the U.S. Programs, Law, and Literature
Division at the Library of Congress.

Caroline Saccucci is the Dewey Program Manager and Acting Program Manager
of the Cataloging in Publication Program.
