DOWNLOAD EBOOKExcerpt from Cataloging for Small Libraries While this revised edition of "Cataloging for small libraries" is much larger than the previous one, it is not changed in outline or principle except in one or two minor particulars. It is by no means exhaustive; it is merely expanded and brought out in detail under each point taken up with a view to enabling the librarian of the small library to gain a more complete and more specific grasp of the subject. The many questions that have come to the author from various sources during the past ten years, and her conviction that even small libraries would better conform to system and method, have made her feel it not only expedient but necessary to be more explicit in her suggestions and directions. Anyone, in any calling, business, or profession, is the better for knowing more than she needs. Excess knowledge may be safely stored away to be called upon in emergencies, and the feeling of its possession stimulates worthy self-confidence on the part of its owner. During the past ten years the author has lectured on the subject of cataloging before many an audience of trained as well as untrained, experienced as well as inexperienced librarians of small libraries, students preparing for such work, trustees of small libraries, and others. The questions asked at such gatherings prove conclusively that the small library does not by any means presuppose a collection of simple books, as is too often taken for granted. If that were so, the simple directions given in the first edition of this work would need no amplification. Experience, however, has shown otherwise, and even trained librarians find themselves timidly doubtful at times in deciding a point, because lack of practice, experience and precedent are wanting to inspire the necessary confidence. Therefore, though this treatise is not intended to be at all dogmatic, I have attempted in this book to outline very fully, but in simple language, with not too embarrassing a number of illustrative examples, the best methods of treating various problems in cataloging, the complex as well as the simple ones, for the librarian of the small library who is ambitious to have her library a well cataloged one in as systematic, useful, yet economical a way as possible.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA proven resource for librarians and students, this updated classic opens the door to understanding current library cataloging processes, shows you how to use them to create standard catalog records, and provides guidance in managing the cataloging workflow. Library cataloging and classification tools are constantly improving, making this concise guide a necessity for any librarian or library student seeking improved understanding of the practical process of cataloging today. With the release of RDA, a new code for description, and a new edition of Dewey Classification, it's time for every library to add this fifth edition of a classic reference to your resources. Two Margaret Mann Citation winners update you on the five basic steps in standardized library cataloging: describing and adding access points for resources; assigning subject headings using Sears List or Library of Congress subject headings; classifying them using the Dewey Decimal or Library of Congress classification systems; and digitizing the resulting records. The book opens with a brief look at the environment in which cataloging now functions, especially in response to advances in digital access. It clarifies terminology, explores new and changed applications, and enhances understanding of basic principles for those responsible for creating cataloging data. To get you ready for tomorrow, the edition closes with a brief look at trends likely to affect cataloging in the foreseeable future.
