[Arakawa, Steven]

I have had enough responses to fill 2 sections; because of space limitations, I will have to close the training for any additional participants. Those of you who will participate should have received a message by now.

Subject: [Yulcat-l] Description and Access training

I'm planning to go over AACR2 and the LC rule interpretations for description and access with cataloging C&Ts at D level (or above) with members of CMS Copy Cataloging and Specialty Cataloging beginning in late February. Each 2 hour session would be once a week. There is some additional space available. If supervisors have other C&Ts D -level or above who catalog and who could use the training, please contact me. The schedule isn't finalized, so let me know their hours of availability (and any planned vacation, possible meeting conflicts, etc.).

Although cataloging may begin transitioning to RDA around summer 2011, a considerable amount of current cataloging practices will continue unchanged or with minor changes, and in any case, a firm grounding in the current rules will hopefully make the transition more comprehensible.
