Welcome to the Basic Library Techniques session in Cataloging. This one-day in person session is required to earn the certificate of completion. Attendees must have completed the online BLT Cataloging class before attending an in-person session.

If you are currently waitlisted for the online session, please do not register until you receive confirmation of a seat in the online class. 

Course highlights:

• Review the history of cataloging and classification in libraries
• Distinguish core elements in MARC records
• Review the structure of subject headings and classification systems
• Investigate contemporary issues in cataloging

Please remember that all work from the online modules must be completed before attendance. All online assignments labeled to be discussed and reviewed in class will be reviewed. There will be a lunch break during class, so a non-heated lunch is recommended for the day of the class.
