Have you ever been unable to find an LC subject heading that you know must
exist?  Ever proposed a new heading, only to find that it was not approved
because the concept is covered by an existing heading?  Then "Searching for
Subjects: A Mini-Workshop" is for you!   The workshop, which is an
adaptation and condensation of a class offered to Library of Congress
cataloging staff, will focus on using both LCSH's structure and
Classification Web search techniques to find headings that may not be
obvious at first glance.  

 

The mini-workshop will consist of discussion of examples and led by Janis L.
Young, a senior cataloging policy specialist in the Library of Congress'
Policy and Standards Division. 

 

Time:                    10:40-11:30 a.m.

Date:                    Sunday, June 29, 2014

Location:             Las Vegas Convention Center, Room N253

 

If you have ever attended one of these SACO mini-workshops in the past, you
know you are in for an informative session, well worth your time. I
encourage everyone to attend.
