Expert Advisory Group (2) • Include e-resource management services in national consortium licencing proposals • Include provision for Australian library holdings from these services to be copied to the ANBD • Establish a wiki to facilitate discussion of e-resource workflow issues • Consult with Libraries Australia users as to whether it would be desirable to produce guidelines for the cataloguing of physical format e-resources

  8. Expert Advisory Group (3) • Consider adding a new encoding level to flag machine generated records and those converted to MARC 21 from other schema such as Dublin Core • Request a change to MARC 21 bibliographic and holdings formats to support a flag for “freely available” online resources • Develop a link checking service • Encourage libraries to maintain URLs contributed in NBD records
