 ====== E-Resources Cataloging - FASTCAT Standards ======
+===== Guidelines for Open Access Resources =====
+In general we will catalog any open access resource that is scholarly in nature and has a record available to download from OCLC. We will also do original cataloging for open access resources that are scholarly in nature and are in some way affiliated with UMass Amherst or the Five Colleges.
+Access will be provided through the following discovery tools:
+  * Aleph catalog
+  * WorldCat Local catalog
+  * SFX for e-journals if there is a target available
+  * Database Locator for selected databases
+===== Workflow for Open Access Resources =====
+  * Free internet resources are chosen by selectors and others, who fill out an online "Request for cataloging free internet resources" form:
+https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1M_6__F1CcrvK99Qt768y9olYYXUy_BE1iEZCl8nhjgU/viewform
+  * The forms go to the electronic resources cataloger in BAMU.
+  * If the resource is a journal do not catalog it.  Instead pass it on to the electronic resources librarian who will check to see if the title can be activated in SFX and cataloged with a MARCit record.
+  * If the resource is a database, the form should also be passed on the person in charge of adding databases to the Database Locator after it has been cataloged.
+  * Do we need to do something with the WorldCat Local Knowledge base?
+  * After these steps have been completed notify the selector via email that the resource was cataloged.
