Online with the CMC: Cataloging Rare Books

When:		Thursday, January 16, 2020 (10:00 AM - 11:00 AM)
Where:		Online with CMC Zoom (Web Conference/Webinar)
Cost:		Free
Presenter:		Vincent Andrzejewski

A one-hour chat session with staff from the Cataloging Maintenance Center (CMC). Each session will begin with a short presentation on a general cataloging topic. The session will then be opened for questions on the presentation as well as on any cataloging topic. Interactive discussion, after the presentation, is encouraged!

The presentations will not focus on any ILS, or on local practices of any library or consortia.

This month's topic: Cataloging Rare Books. Printed materials in special collections require additional details of description in order to identify significant characteristics (bibliographical format, typeface, etc.), which help identify a resource (editions, impressions, or issues), and provide a more exact description of the resource.

CMC is funded by a grant from the Illinois State Library.
