The Cataloging in Publication (CIP) Program is now accepting e-books from major U.S. publishers to help build the Library of Congress’ collections. This is a major step forward in management of e-book collections at the Library of Congress as the process for ingesting CIP e-books will be used as a model for acquiring e-books from other acquisitions sources. The presentation will discuss all elements of the CIP E-Books Program, including the application process, publisher participation, e-book metadata creation, and ingestion of the e-books into the library’s content transfer system to add to the library’s collections.
Learning Outcomes
Attendees will become more knowledgeable about e-book metadata and ingestion workflows in a large library setting and how to identify high-quality prepublication e-book metadata in bibliographic utilities.
Who Should Attend
Metadata librarians and e-resources librarians of all types of libraries.
Intermediate-level content, no prerequisites.
