MEDCAT
An e-list open to all medical catalogers Sponsored by the Health Sciences OCLC Users Group |
|
The MEDCAT list exchanges ideas related to medical cataloging provided by or for libraries and information centers in the health
sciences. It provides an opportunity for technical services professionals and support staff, as well as anyone interested in the bibliographic and authority control of medical and health science resources, to participate in discussions about the standards, procedures, and developments that dictate policy.
MEDCAT is sponsored by the Health Science OCLC Users Group (HSOCLCUG) and is operated by its membership. The list posts continuing education opportunities, job vacancies, and meetings sponsored by related organizations in the field. Although not its primary purpose, the list announces HSOCLCUG meetings and updates to the HSOCLCUG Home page:
