Integrating resource cataloging question Nancy Chaffin 22 Feb 2006 20:02 UTC

Hi all

I understand how the aggregator neutral record works for serials, but is
there a similar rule/practice I am missing for integrating resources,
specifically abstracting/indexing databases that are offered on
different platforms?

Example:
Our library subscribes to Music Index Online directly from the
publisher, Harmonie Park Press. However, we are moving our subscription
to the Ebsco version.  There is no catalog record for the resource
listing Ebsco as the publisher or with an Ebsco URL.  Should I use the
record for Harmonie, or create a new one for Ebsco?

TIA,

Nancy
