[OPLINLIST] Develop your subject analysis skills with OhioNET, beginning on 10/17

[Shelly Miller via OPLINLIST]

Do you work with cataloging or records maintenance at your library?  Could you use a better understanding of how subject headings are assigned?

This workshop and series will focus on the skills and knowledge necessary to understand and assess existing subject headings in MARC format.  The course is aimed at those individuals primarily practicing copy cataloging.  Through these sessions attendees will have the opportunity to gain an overview of the variety of subject heading systems, understand the rules for how LoC subject headings are assigned to a record, recognize the variety of RDA-related changes in subject authority records, explore MARC21 for subject headings in bib records and LCSH authority records and assess the quality of existing records. We will also cover catalogers' judgement and bias.

Presenter Misty Alvaro makes cataloging accessible and interesting no matter what your cataloging experience.
