Content Management Committee

The primary functions of the Content Management Committee are to promote consistent bibliographic records, cataloging and circulation practices and to maintain a functional and attractive user interface within the Montana Shared Catalog (MSC) Integrated Library System (ILS). The committee is responsible for the Cataloging Guidelines (doc), which are regularly reviewed and updated as necessary. The Committee also participates in training, and Committee members actively participate in: the MSC-discuss listserv, the MSC-techservices listserv, and the Unicorn cataloging listserv. They also make recommendations for enhancements to the ILS based on membership and Committee discussion.
