What does this programme cover?

Library cataloguing and classification decide whether a reader can find a book on the shelf or in the catalogue, yet many libraries carry inconsistent records, duplicate name forms, outdated subject terms and call numbers that scatter related titles. This Core Concept course trains technical services staff to describe resources with RDA, encode MARC 21 bibliographic and authority records, assign controlled subject headings and build Dewey and Library of Congress class numbers, including Arabic-script materials. Participants produce a Cataloguing and Classification Procedures Manual with a validated sample record set.
