Earlier such text databases were made available through an interface service like dialog, orbit etc.

Subject: Re: [LIS-Forum] Database Vs. Website

If you carefully look at the examples provided in the Australian National

Bibliographic Database Manual, the field data for 007, 336, 337 and 338 are

the fields with controlled terms, is mostly same in both cases (website and

database).

In other descriptive fields, it depends upon the resource you are

cataloguing and the information about the database/website available with

you. For example, if access period of ScienceDirect is for specific period

it can be mentioned in the 362 field.

The specific type of resources (video, database, website etc) are generally

managed in different softwares through local fields (9XX)  or local

database structure which is mostly for local use and may not be common

across all softwares.
