Dewey : the Small-Town Library Cat
Who Touched the World / Vicki Myron
“… Dewey was the subject of … [the]
Iowa Boy column in the Des Moines
Register [which] was one of those
columns that said things like: ‘It was
the most shocking piece of news I’d
come across since the time a few
years ago I found out the Cleghorn
Public Library … had started checking
out cake pans to its patrons.’” (p. 148)

Why All Those Cataloging

“Rules, rules, rules!
Is that all you

“Frankly, my dear
…YES! It’s important
to be CONSISTENT
so that items can
easily be found in the
library.”

CARD CATALOG
Same
principles hold true as in
MARC.
Create a description that makes
sense to your library users.
Use title, publisher, number of
pieces/parts, notes, subject
headings.
Some Examples
Catalog as a group –
or separately?
What is the TITLE?
What is the GMD?
Who is the publisher/
manufacturer?
Include a date?
What are the sizes?
How many pieces?
Add purchase
information as a note?
