RDA News

 I suspect that many of you already follow RDA developments.  However, for those who haven't had a chance to catch up with their email or RSS feed, the RDA ToolKit posted this reminder today:


December 15th Transition Preparation

We have just about six weeks until the beta RDA Toolkit becomes our standard platform on December 15, 2020 around 8 PM CST. The original version of RDA Toolkit will still be accessible to all subscribers for the foreseeable future, and there will be additional free and premium learning opportunities to help all subscribers improve their skills with the beta RDA Toolkit well into the new year. In the meanwhile, please look out for a November e-mail blast from us explaining what's going to happen, what's not going to happen, what you should do to prepare, and key preparation resources.



If you want to follow developments for yourself or subscribe to email updates about the ToolKit, have a look at their website  https://www.rdatoolkit.org/

Incivility in libraries

 I don't know about you but from time to time I am introduced to someone who asks me where I work or what I do for a living.  When I say that I am a librarian or that I work in a library, I am presented with a response something along the lines, "that must be a dream job, no stress at all."  Hmmm...  I wish.  Yet, so many people seem to hold this point of view.  Perhaps the only knowledge they have of libraries and library work is their exposure to libraries as an infrequent user.  In their minds, the library is a quiet and peaceful place full of all sorts of interesting books, movies, and music.  Everyone in the library is happy and there is nothing to fight about or to cause stress.  Oh, if only that were true.  The reality is that there have been days in my working life where I could barely sleep at night, had to force myself to get out of bed in the morning, feared going to work, and walked around all day with a knot in my stomach....

Metadata Update #8 - The Cataloguing Calculator

I've promised to share information about commonly used cataloguing tools.  This is the first of several posts that I am going to make on this topic.  The post includes a series of brief exercises to help you explore the different functions and information that can be accessed through the calculator.  This link is for the cataloguing calculator.   It is found in the Cataloguer’s Desktop but it is also freely available on the web from any internet connection. It’s a tool that I used in my cataloguing class and it might be useful to have for those times when you want to quickly cook up a Cutter Number or country code and you don’t want to pull out your cheat sheets: http://calculate.alptown.com/ Here’s a few things that you can do to get orientated to using the calculator: 1.        Suppose you want to cook up a Cutter Number.   Click the LC Cutter search option then start typing the last name, title, etc (except location...
