What is Copy Cataloging and why are we doing it? This workshop prepares participants to begin copy cataloging by demonstrating how to interpret bibliographic records and match to items in hand. Topics include terminology, resources, and workflow. Hands-on exercises provide practice using new skills. The class uses OCLC Connexion and Library of Congress for matching records. The workshop concentrates on books, but the concepts for all formats are discussed.

Learning Objectives:

  • Define copy cataloging including basic cataloging principles & terminology
  • Identify job skills and work flow for copy cataloging
  • Evaluate what fields should evoke a match

Target Audience :

New library staff members or more experienced librarians who want a review

The maximum number of participants is 20 per session.  Registration will begin at 8:30 a.m. and the class will start at 9 a.m. This workshop is hands- on in the computer labs of these libraries. Cost is $15 for CTLS members and $35 for non-members. CTLS members needing financial assistance may contact the Friends of CTLS. 6 hours of continuing education credit will be awarded.
