The Library Catalog, Cataloging, & Catalogers: Demystifying Technical Service Work in Libraries

This UH Libraries Edubreak seeks to demystify the visible and invisible labor of the resource description (i.e., cataloging) functional area, provide information on navigating the library catalog, and discuss the complexity of work required to populate and maintain the catalog. Lastly, this Edubreak will invite attendees to ask questions about our functional areas' foundational role in the everyday operations of this UH Main Campus, the UH System, as well as other cataloging shops throughout the profession.
