ISBD(ER) Revisions
If concerned about ISBD(ER) revisions speak up. Changes in the ISBD often result in changes in AARC. However, AACR did not pick up the useful list of GMD terms from ISBD(ER).
In an effort to take into account the changes being adopted in describing electronic resources by the Joint Steering Committee for Revision of AACR (JSC) and other sources, the IFLA ISBD Review Group commissioned an investigation into those problem areas in the ISBD(ER) that it deemed to be significant and in need of immediate resolution. Four specific problem areas were identified: 0.5 (Sources of Information); Area 3 (Type and Extent of Resource); Area 5 (Physical Description); and Area 8 (Standard Number (or Alternative) and Terms of Availability). A principal investigator was appointed to conduct a six-month investigation, which resulted in a report containing options and recommendations for the ISBD Review Group to consider. The Group discussed the report at its August 2002 meeting in Glasgow, Scotland, and limited the number of changes to the following 8 recommendations that are being issued at this time for worldwide review. The proposed changes following each recommendation are underlined.
