Cataloging Documentation
We have a small staff and a large number of resources to describe. In order to make best use of our time we are creating different standards for handling items with matching records in OCLC. Please refer to documentation for each format to see what is good enough in 2009. These descriptions are different than the preceding record requirements. The wiki contains local information on how we catalog here. If you need to know questions that aren't specific to this library look in the National documentation section.
