Library Journal Review

Weber (Cataloging Nonprint and Internet Resources) and Austin-head of central technical services and head of monographs cataloging and database management, respectively, at Rutgers University Libraries-provide a well-organized resource for catalogers charged with creating descriptive records for digital and electronic materials. Their text smoothes the transition from AACR2 to Resource Description and Access (RDA) and Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR), covering a variety of electronic and digital media and providing cataloging examples in MARC, Metadata Object Description Schema (MODS), and Dublin Core (DC). VERDICT This is an up-to-date and handy desk reference for catalogers of electronic, digital, cartographic, sound, video, Internet, database, and other mixed media. It's also suitable for non-tech services librarians tackling original cataloging of electronic or digital media and those curating and creating access to locally created content within their communities and institutions. With a useful CD-ROM for step-by-step help and a companion website that will be updated as necessary. Recommended.-Catherine C. McMullen, Canby P.L., OR (c) Copyright 2011.
