CC:DA/A/Action List/37

September 23, 1998

The chair, Daniel Kinney, announced that CC:DA membership increased with the addition of a representative from the Program for Cooperative Cataloging. Joan Schuitema is the PCC representative.

Daniel Kinney reported on the joint CCS/CC:DA preconference “What in the World … Cataloging on an International Scale.”

Bernhard Eversberg from the University of Braunschweig and Monika Münnich from the University of Heidelberg gave a presentation on Project REUSE and Project REUSE+. Bernhard Eversberg described the approach to cataloging multipart items that is used in German libraries.

Jean Hirons reported on a CONSER proposal that identifies categories of ongoing bibliographic entities and discussed the possible impact of the proposal on monographs, serials, and AACR. CC:DA invited the CONSER working group to develop a rule change proposal and to present it to CC:DA at Midwinter.

CC:DA heard the report of the ALA Representative to the JSC, Brian Schottlaender, and approved 4JSC/ALA/25/ALA follow-up/LC response and 4JSC/Rule Revision/1/Consolidated/1/LC response/CCC rep response.

Martha Yee gave a progress report on the newly formed Task Force on Rule 0.24. She described four different approaches to modifying the cardinal principle in rule 0.24. The working documents of the task force are on the CC:DA Web site.

Martha Yee presented the final report of the Task Force on Conference Proceedings II. The task force recommended two options for changing rule 21.1B1. CC:DA approved the second option and voted to send a letter to LC requesting changes in the LCRI for 21.1B1.

Lynne Howarth gave a progress report on the work of the Task Force on Harmonization of ISBD(ER) and AACR. This task force has a home page with a link from the CC:DA Web site.

Sherry Kelley presented the final report of the Task Force on Metadata and the Cataloging Rules. CC:DA accepted the recommendations of the task force and voted to refer three suggestions for rule changes to the Task Force on Harmonization of ISBD(ER) and AACR, to form a new task force on metadata that would include members of CC:DA and MARBI, and to form a task force on the VRA core categories.

CC:DA heard reports from Tony Olson, CCS Representative to the ALCTS Publications Committee; Barbara Tillett, LC Representative; and Glenn Patton, OCLC Representative. Don Chatham and Mary Huchting provided the committee with an update on the electronic version of AACR2.

CC:DA and MARBI held a joint meeting to discuss common concerns. The members of both committees agreed that the two committees should hold joint meetings at future ALA conferences.
