101. YBP Cataloging Service
YBP provides cataloging support for any eBooks ordered and invoiced as individual titles on a designated eBook subaccount. eBook cataloging records conform to the Program for Cooperative Cataloging (PCC’s) MARC Record Guide for Monograph Aggregator Vendors (see guidelines at In addition, these records contain site-specific URLs and other local customization.
In most cases, YBP eBook cataloging records are derived from records for the print format. If no print record is available, a brief machine-generated record can be sent as placeholder. Customers have the option of receiving that initial machine-generated record or not. A Provisional+ cataloging record will be delivered subsequently, typically in less than 5 days, at no additional cost. Provisional+ records include LC Classification and Book Numbers and, when appropriate, at least one LC subject heading. Subject analysis and description are performed by professional catalogers and adhere to national and international standards. Book numbers for LC classed titles are assigned in accordance with LC shelf-listing practices.
