Z39.50 What is it and why do we care?
(Phil Williams - Member NISO Z39.50 Committee; Virginia Benjamin - University of Georgia)
Z39.50 (a NISO standard) facilitates queries between computers. Many
implementations occur behind-the scenes and are transparent to the end user.
Examples include the new GIL Universal Catalog, as well as
gatewaying valid patrons from GIL to locally licensed databases such as
Silverplatter
and linking results from SP searches to local holdings.
A more public z39.50 presence exists in citation tools/bibliography manager
software such as Endnote, ProCite, and Reference Manager which offer z39.50
"quick connect/search/direct-download" with catalogs at GIL libraries
(including the new GIL Universal Catalog), the Library of Congress, and
hundreds of other research libraries around the world, as well as Medline at
the National Library of Medicine and additional research databases.
Once swallowed into Endnote, etc., via the z39 quick Connect, the electronic
bib records, along with those imported from GALILEO databases, are available
for the effortless creation of in-text citations and bibliography as
students and faculty write papers, journal articles, dissertations, books,
and grant proposals.
This non-technical introduction will acquaint you with the power of z39.50, its current functionalities with emphasis on GIL implementations, how it facilitates cross-database searching in University System libraries, how it aids citation tool users (featuring Endnote), and what the future holds.

Bibliographic Access to Electronic Resource and a Report from the GALILEO Electronic Resources Access Study Group
(Susan Curtis - University of Georgia; Betsy Griffies -State University of West Georgia)
Bibliographic access to digital objects is a growing concern as libraries move to share their special collections over the Internet. The Digital Library of Georgia has embarked upon several digitalization projects which include slides, maps, manuscripts, and drawings. To download bibliographic descriptions of each digital object would quickly overrun our library catalogs; perhaps causing users needless frustration as they seek print materials. Likewise, the decisions regarding loading book and journal aggregator records for the individual titles in their collections are influenced by the inevitable need to provide record maintenance. A suggestion has been made that a 36th GIL catalog be reserved for bibliographic records for electronic objects. This session would explore this suggestion proposal and clarify the ramifications for users at the individual institutions. The session would also include a brief report from the GALILEO Electronic Resources Access Study Group.
