Conference proceedings: when to forward to Sercat.

A. Forward to Sercat all conference publications for which MIT serial holdings are found. 

Forward to Sercat all conference publications for which OCLC CONSER copy is found (look for field 042).

B. In the absence of MIT serial holdings or CONSER serial copy: Usually follow MIT's past monograph treatment, and continue to analyze for Barker conference proceedings.

If not held by MIT, usually follow LC's past treatment. (If LC has monocot previous issues, usually monocat.)

C. In the absence of MIT or LC serial or monograph precedent:

Monocat conference publications which are part of a numbered series.

Monocat conference publications which have issue-specific (distinctive) titles. (Forward to Sercat those that have "theme" titles, e.g., "ALA on Bilious Bay," but no distinctive title.)

Forward to Sercat any new conference publication (zero MIT, zero LC; zero distinctive title, zero numbered series) which calls itself "First," "Second," "Annual," etc.

If in doubt about how these guidelines apply to the conference publication in hand, please forward it to Sercat.

Please note that these guidelines apply only to conference publications.
