Electronic Gov. Pubs. cataloguing February 13, 2007
Posted by bibservatmac in Projects, cataloguing, electronic, original cataloguing.add a comment
The original cataloguers are currently undertaking the cataloguing of approx. 160 e-government publication titles. Most of these titles were pulled out of the ERD when it was converted to the nERD and need to have catalogue records in Morris to make them accessible.
Cataloguers will use the Library and Archives Canada archived URL whenever possible. To find this URL, search the title in Amicus and capture the link contained in the record for the electronic format (or just download the electronic record to Morris from Amicus). If the URL sends you to a document where access is restricted, then prefer the Depository Services (dsp) URL instead. If neither of these is an option, use the URL for the parliamentary site contained in the brief bib.
Bertrand Russell Pamphlet Collection February 12, 2007
Posted by bibservatmac in Projects, cataloguing.1 comment so far
If you have sharp eyes, you might have noticed that I moved the Russell Pamphlets into the Completed Projects section last week. I was a little early, as it wasn’t quite finished, but I’m pleased to say that it is now!
There were 180 titles in this collection, many of which have few or no other holdings in WorldCat. The Bertrand Russell pamphlets consist of short works by Bertrand Russell, and form part of a larger Russell Pamphlet collection held by the Division of Archives and Research Collections. Research Collections also maintains Bertrand Russell’s personal archives and library as well as an extensive collection of Russell’s publications. Thanks to Barb, Bev, Doris, and Laurel for their work on this project!
To see the full list, do a keyword search in MORRIS for “Bertrand Russell Pamphlet collection“.

Thanks to Tamara, Barb, and Bev for their work creating copy records and getting the briefs ready to overlay.

A variety of things have happened on the project front recently. The Projects page has just been updated, so I won’t go into all the details here, but the headlines are:
- Cataloguing (all original!) of the Steetley South Quarry Landfill documents has been completed
- Cataloguing has begun on the Russell Pamphlet collection
- The De-Duping project has gotten underway
In addition, the copy cataloguers continue to make terrific progress through the Source OECD titles and Wade has finished planning for the Kinesiology Publications cataloguing project–look for this to kick-off soon!
