CONNECT Resources - March 2013

  • If you like official things, try the official RDA website [1].
  • Don’t think AACR2 is due for a revision? Watch this fantastic video from a library school in India.
    Library Cataloguing Practice [2]
  • If you’ve got the time or can’t attend CONNECT, check out this playlist (there’s even a video on RDA for non-catalogers) RDA Series Webinars [3]
  • Here’s an interesting slideshow look at “Cataloging the Weird Stuff [4]” – you never know, it might be relevant.
  • Listen to an interesting discussion of the “future of cataloging” from LibraryThing founder Tim Spalding. (Personally, I think LibraryThing is a database but it’s still an interesting talk. See what you think.)
    Part I [5] and Part II [6]
  • More of an indexing thing but still a fun video look at one of my all-time favorite sources:  Using Science Citation Index [7]
  • RDA Questions & Answers prepared by Pauline Rodriguez-Atkins [8]

Subject Heading Game from Connect Forum:
