Learn how to develop your non-English collections affordably.
Plan to attend this seminar to learn how OCLC Language Sets make it
easy and affordable to meet the needs of an increasingly diverse population
of library users. We make it simple to start or expand your current
collection of materials in the following languages: Chinese, Japanese,
Korean, Vietnamese, Russian, and Spanish.
Choose from separate collections for children and adults in several
sizes of pre-selected sets for each language. You can order just one set or
add sets on a regular basis at a budget-friendly, fixed price. In addition
to carefully selected current titles, you receive the added value of full
OCLC cataloging for all materials.
What we do for you:
*Select current bestsellers in Asian, Russian, and Spanish languages
(plus Spanish videos for adults and children)
*Acquire the items
*Catalog in full MARC with LC subject headings, Bilindex subject
headings (Spanish titles), and Dewey or LC call numbers
*Physical processing for your items, if you wish
*Set your holdings in OCLC WorldCat®
*Ship your new materials to you at no cost
