ALCTS webinar: Using the Library of Congress Classification P Schedule
Date: May 9, 2012
All webinars are one hour in length and begin at 11am Pacific, noon
Mountain, 1pm Central, and 2pm Eastern time.
Description: This webinar will cover some of the more complex aspects of
using the "P" schedule to create classification numbers, including use
of various tables, with a focus on individual literary authors of the
20th and 21st centuries.
Learning Outcomes: At the end of the presentation, attendees will be
able to:
- classification numbers for individual literary authors
- identify and use appropriate internal tables to shelflist an author's
collections, individual works, and criticism
- apply external tables from CSM: Classification and Shelflisting Manual
to shelflist translations, abridgments, and criticism of individual
literary works
Audience: The presentation is geared toward catalogers with some
experience using the "P" classification, and thus will not cover basic
skills.
Presenter: Elaine A. Franco has been Principal Cataloger for monographs
at the University of California, Davis, since 1990, and served in a
similar position at the University of Nebraska--Lincoln, where she began
her career over thirty years ago. In her capacity as Principal
Cataloger, Elaine has served as a resource person for interpreting
cataloging rules, training new catalogers, and maintaining quality
control. She has used each of the LC Classification Schedules at some
point, specializing in the humanities.
Elaine is currently the Vice Chair of the ALCTS Affiliate Relations
Committee.
