As law libraries increasingly rely on online resources, there is a growing need for MARC bibliographic records to represent these resources in the local online catalog. Many law libraries now have access to large digital collections such as Making of Modern Law, LLMC-Digital and HeinOnline, not to mention Lexis and Westlaw, with titles too numerous to be cataloged locally. As a result, law libraries must rely on records supplied by vendors for access to these titles in their local catalogs. Members of the TS-SIS Task Group on Vendor-Supplied Bibliographic Records will discuss the new standards for provider-neutral e-monograph records. The ongoing work of evaluating MARC record sets and working with vendors and others to improve the quality of these record sets also will be explained.
