- Abstract
- The Library of Congress proudly presents its own introductory course in descriptive cataloging. Cataloging concepts is ideal for in-house training of technical services staff as well as other staff who need familiarity with standard bibliographic records. Also useful to library schools, bibliographic utilities, and other library training providers. Developed by LC's Technical Processing and Automation Instruction Office, these proven materials are now available to the library community at large.Designed for six three-hour classroom sessions (for a total of 18 hours), the course gives trainees the knowledge to: interpret and use current (AACR2) catalog records * define the purpose and scope of desciptive cataloging * define standard terms used in processing activities * identify tools used for descriptive cataloging of book and non-book materials * identify areas and elements of manual and online bibliographic records as determined by ISBD * identify the MARC tag for each area of the online bibliographic record * describe underlying principles for selecting and formulating main and added entries * and define the purpose and identify the structure of online name and series authority records
