Catalog electronic resources for the significant aspect of the content, rather than their physical form. Materials coded for Type of record as "m" are: computer software (including programs, games, fonts), numeric data, computer-oriented multimedia, and online systems or services. Other classes of electronic resources are coded for their most significant aspect (eg. language materials, graphic, cartographic material, sound, music, moving image). In case of doubt or if the most significant aspect cannot be determined, consider the item a computer file. For serials follow CONSER guidelines.

Standards vary for cataloging electronic resources - CONSER, GPO, Provider-Neutral, RDA, LC, etc. Fields and data necessary to create format displays or facets, categorize materials, provide statistical data or reports in the library's online system will be utilized even if one of the standards does not require them.
See Cataloging Procedures

Provider-Neutral standard fields indicated in commonly used fields (not all) in the table below with eBooks and Web sites. See P-N guidelines Provider-Neutral e-resource guidelines

TAG	DESCRIPTION
LDR: 06 Type of Record:	a - language material and manuscripts. Code other formats as appropriate. ETD: t - reproduction of manuscript language material
LDR: 07 BLvl:	a - for monographs
008 Form:	Prefer o for online (remote) and q for cd... (direct). s - electronic "form" of item general; often found on older records.
006	Additional material characteristics. Use on records with Type other than "m". Code $a "m". Allows for search limiting by format. Optionally add another 006 with "t" for reproduction of manuscript language materials. In OCLC, select Edit, then Guided entry, then Insert 006. Only $a required
007	Physical description. Allows for search limiting by format. P-N: Only $a and $b required
020	ISBN P-N: record each e-version ISBN in separate 020; record other ISBNs in 020 $z and copy physical format ISBN to 776 $z CFL: Remove 020 $z fields. It can cause online to overlay print record.
041	Language of text CFL: Apply as appropriate. NOTE: Make notes in 546 about summaries, translations, etc.

050-090	Call number. Classification serves as a topic identifier. Classification assigned to an electronic resource will display within a browse list of call numbers. Where print and electronic titles are the same, the same call number will be used for both. Federal documents will be assigned SUDOC numbers when they can be readily identified. Local resources will be assigned LC classification and a holding created to display the call number in Primo. For ebooks or ejournals, the bib should contain an LC classification, don't create a holding. However, extraordinary effort should not be made to differentiate cutters since the call numbers are not used for shelving. Use SUDOC for federal documents when known Use LC for all local resources ETD: 099_9 $a T[year] $a Cutter [4-cutter Sanborn]. See Theses cataloging for more instructions.
