Abstract:

'Videorecording Cataloging: Problems and Pointers' assumes basic knowledge of MARC 21 and the AACR2 cataloging rules for videorecordings. Not intended to be a comprehensive review of videorecording cataloging, it instead concentrates on areas that have proven to be problems for catalogers. Included among the topics discussed are sources of information, when to input a new record, special issues regarding music videos, DVDs and other videodiscs, colorized versions, letterboxed versions, closed captioning and audio enhancement, treatment of certain types of titles, statements of responsibility and credits, field 007, dates, numbers associated with videos, genre headings, locally made videorecordings, 'In' analytics, statements of responsibility, and collection level cataloging.
