Abstract Abstracts or summary notes and automated summarization techniques would be highly useful if routinely applied to cataloging or metadata for Internet documents and documents in other databases. Information seekers need external summary information to assess content and value of retrieved documents.

Abstract REESWeb: Russian and East European Studies Internet Resources is an annotated, subject-specific link site, part of the World Wide Web Virtual Library, begun in late'1993. In its four years it has become a huge site and difficult to use. A reorganization last year using Frames and shortened pages helped, but its structure still causes problems for users. There are four basic reasons why the site is difficult to use in its present form: no search engine, split categories, idiosyncratic terminology and idiosyncratic subcatego-rization. The search engine problem will be solved soon, after the site moves to a new server. Another simple improvement will be to create a map of the site. These two changes by themselves are not enough, because the site needs increased browsability. The author explores various considerations involved in reorganizing REESWeb, taken from other Web sites, from subject cataloging and from indexing.

Abstract The proliferation of online versions of printed publications during the spring of 1996 led a number of catalogers to question the necessity for creating separate catalog records. Many catalogers, frustrated with the lack of a multiple versions solution, favored finding a way to use the existing print records to notify patrons of the online version. CONSER catalogers, while recognizing their commitment to the national database, were equally interested in finding alternatives, and others expressed an interest in knowing what CONSER would do. In order to gather feedback for policy-setting, Hirons posted inquiries to various online discussion lists and a thoughtful and lively debate ensued. Hirons discusses the issues leading up to the discussion, factors of importance for CONSER, the interim guidelines that have been developed, and possible next steps.

Abstract While there are numerous information sources that are available on the World Wide Web (WWW), the identification of significant Net resources is often not as efficient nor as effective as many desire. In 1995, a demonstration prototype service-Cyber-Stacks(sm) http://Avyvw.public.iastale.edu/CWERSIACKSA, was formally established at Iowa State University with the intent of enhancing access and use of selected Internet resources in science, technology and related areas through the application of the Library of Congress classification system as an organizational framework. As the prototype was refined, other methods for identifying and selecting relevant resources were subsequently incorporated within its scheme. This paper reviews the creation of the CyberStacks(sm) prototype, describes the development and potential usefulness of its matrix of access options, and discusses the applicability of traditional and conventional library selection and organizational philosophies, practices, methods and tech...

ABSTRACT This bibliography contains selected cataloging tools on the Internet. It is divided into seven sections as follows: authority management and subject headings tools; cataloging tools by type of materials; dictionaries, encyclopedias, and place names; listservs and workshops; software and vendors; technical service professional organizations; and journals and newsletters. Resources are arranged in alphabetical order under each topic. Selected cataloging tools are annotated. There is some overlap since a given web site can cover many tools.

Abstract This paper is based on a presentation as part of “Cataloging Internet Resources: Two Viewpoints,” given for the Heads of Cataloging Discussion Group at the American Library Association Midwinter Conference in January 1996. The OCLC InterCat Project was initiated to create bibliographic records for Internet sources and over a period of eighteen months more than 230 libraries signed on to participate. The administrative perspective is presented in a series of questions that administrators would typically ask before allocating the resources needed. The answers, which are provided in the context of the UCSB experience, are meant to allay concerns and provide practical and positive responses. The second half of the paper addresses the process of decision-making, planning, and implementation of the InterCat Project from an administrator's perspective.

Abstract In 1995, the University at Buffalo libraries began to identify, select, and catalog non-serial Internet resources. Among the points covered in this article are the selection process for identifying information sources through the Internet; the policies and procedures for providing access to them; the bibliographic, holdings, and OPAC displays; and the problems encountered during the project.

Abstract The Scout Report Signpost (http://www.signpost.org) serves as a proof-of-concept demonstration that Internet resources can be cataloged, classified, and arranged using existing taxonomies such as the Library of Congress Classification scheme and Library of Congress Subject Headings in concert with the emerging metadata standard known as the Dublin Core. The techniques used to accomplish this, as well as difficulties inherent in such an effort, are discussed. A theoretical framework for cataloging is also detailed. This paper is based on a presentation by Aimee D. Glassel to the ALCTS Cataloging and Classification Section Research Discussion Group at the American Library Association Annual Conference on June 28, 1997. Signpost is funded by the National Science Foundation.

This paper describes the combined experience of two research driven case studies that resulted in an Area Studies Virtual Library Catalog (ASVLC). The purpose of the catalog was to provide easy access to, and retrieval of, distributed Internet resources pertaining to four geographic regions: Africa, Latin America, the Middle East and South Asia. The case studies addressed the special considerations encountered in dealing with dynamic Web-based documents in a distributed virtual library. Our experience led to an understanding that collection guidelines for Internet sites must consider various document types available on the Web, document behavior, and document quality. We baselined quantities of Web documents reported by search engines to gain a general concept of document distribution by country, region, and language. Research was performed on Web document persistence to answer questions on catalog maintenance. Findings on document persistence were applied to collection guidelines. The record format for the catalog was modified to capture quality indicators about the Web document being described and new metadata forms to better meet the needs of the end user. By incorporating commercial, off-the-shelf software and existing cataloging standards and practices with our findings, we developed a semi-automated methodology for record and catalog creation. Our findings emphasize the differences between the print or paper-based and Web-based electronic documents, the application of the new technologies, and the impact of the findings on creating a virtual library catalog.
