- Abstract
- Provides an overview of microformat set problems and discusses guidelines developed by Auburn University, Alabama, for loading bibliographic records for sets. Considers downloading individual records and tapeloading entire sets. Suggests categorizing and prioritising microform sets to decide which sets should be analyzed. Current and projected usage, strengths of the existing collection, other means of access and record qiality should be evaluated when choosing which microform sets to analyze. Communication and ccoperation between the reference, cataloguing and automation departments, and the librarians responsible for microform collection development and acquisition is the key to ensuring catalogue integrity and improved access to microformatted materials
