Government Documents Work

Factors to consider:

• Federal Government Documents Collection (U.S. G.P.O)

  1. 1. Can someone from be designated as a contact for Ex Libris, to be set up as a content provider for a community zone collection?
        This person(s) would be responsible for FTPing  the marc files of FDLP e-resources to Ex Libris on a regular basis, and for trouble shooting and correcting errors in the metadata that are brought to Ex Libris by Support.
        See more information on acting as a Content Provider sending e-resource metadata to Ex Libris.

• California Government Documents Collection (C.S.L.)

  1. Can someone from the California State Library be designated as a content provider contact for Ex Libris?
     This person(s) would be responsible for FTPing  the marc records or kbart files for CalDoc e-resources to Ex Libris on a regular basis, and for trouble shooting and correcting errors in the metadata that are brought to Ex Libris Support.
     See more information on acting as a Content Provider sending e-resource metadata to Ex Libris.

  2. How do we collect all the catalog records for electronic California Government Documents (e-CalDocs) in one place? It should be vendor agnostic enough to take advantage of all the work done by catalogers in various libraries.
     Options:

     1. • Create a community-managed Community Zone collection in Alma for these e-resources that users can add to and edit at will.

  3. Could we help each other track which California e-resources have been cataloged and which ones need to be cataloged?
