LIBRLT302 - Descriptive And Access Cataloguing I

Course Description

Develop understanding of library cataloguing, including the Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules for creating descriptive item records. Learn to use MARC coding for cataloguing bibliographic records in an automated environment. Required course. 1. For courses with a final exam, you must receive a passing grade in both the term work and the exam to pass the course. 2. All assignments in a course must be submitted. Failure to submit all assignments will result in a failing grade for that course. 3. It is the expectation that students express themselves effectively. All written assignments must meet the standard of English required in library and information work. If, in the judgement of the instructor, assignments submitted do not meet the required standard, they will be returned to the student for revision. Mistakes in grammar and spelling will be reflected negatively in the marks allocated to assignments.
