Today was my "enrollment appointment" to register online for the courses I'll be taking in the fall (pre-determined by what they would give me permission numbers for a few weeks ago). No complaints though - I got the two courses I wanted (though the course number they gave me was wrong, so it wasn't a completely smooth registration process). I'll be taking:
LIBR 248-02. Beginning Cataloging and Classification
Theory and practice of bibliographic control including the study of representative cataloging using AACR2, machine-based representation using MARC formats and other standards, subject analysis and classification using LCSH, Dewey and LCC with application to books, non-book materials and serials.
With Karpuk, online.
Definitely one of those courses every librarian needs to have taken...
and
LIBR 266-01. Collection Management
Study of collection management in all types of libraries and information centers. Includes analysis of information needs, criteria for selection, collection use evaluation, and resources for collection development.
Supposedly with Disher, but Jean told me he just took a new job and wasn't going to be teaching... which is too bad, because lots of people recommended him!
3 Saturdays plus Web (9/11; 10/9; 11/20)
