ALCTS webinar: Don’t Tilt at Windmills, an Active Learning Approach to 
Teaching FRBR

Date: December 1, 2010

All webinars are one hour in length and begin at 2pm Eastern, 1pm 
Central, noon Mountain, and 11am Pacific Time.

Description: This presentation will describe in greater detail the 
active training methods for FRBR that engages the entire cataloging 
staff. The active process empowers library staff and the observations 
foreshadow the major issues that will be faced in implementing new 
tools. This training session is aimed at cataloging managers to help 
empower their staff with new tools, anticipate challenges in 
implementation, and build team morale.

Presenters: James P. Ascher is an Assistant Professor and Rare Book 
Cataloger at the University of Colorado at Boulder since 2009, where he 
teaches book history and maintains bibliographical databases. He holds 
an MS in Mathematics in addition to his MLIS and has published on 
bibliographical methods in RBM--the premier journal in rare books and 
manuscripts studies.

Peter J. Rolla, Assistant Professor, Catalog Librarian, University of 
Colorado at Boulder Libraries. He has an MLIS from Simmons College and 
an M. Phil. in Spanish Language and Literature from Yale University
