      Speaker(s)

Carol Bradsher is a library consultant with over twenty years of 
experience in libraries. She has designed and presented training 
sessions for the Ohio Library Council, Ohio regional library systems, 
the State Library of West Virginia, the Kentucky Dept. of Libraries and 
Archives, and also developed the successful "Guerilla cataloging" series 
for INFOhio. In addition to her cataloging and training experience, she 
also worked as a consultant for OPLIN to implement MORE, the Ohio 
statewide resource-sharing program.

Participants in Ms. Bradsher's training sessions frequently cite her 
sense of humor and her ability to explain cataloging concepts in simple 
terms, but her favorite workshop evaluation comment is, "Very 
effective-- first time I attended a MARC workshop and didn't fall 
asleep," which she considers high praise indeed.


      Description

Audiobooks come in many flavors these days-- books on cassette, books on 
CD, and books on computer. This workshop will build your confidence in 
cataloging these items, as well as evaluating vendor-supplied 
cataloging. Participants will learn to create a description of the item, 
provide access by names, titles, and subjects, and code the 
bibliographic information into MARC format. Participants are encouraged 
to bring items for practice.


      Meal

Continental breakfast will be provided; lunch is on your own.
