Library Catalogues: The New Electronic Frontiers of Library Science This 4-page undergraduate paper provides answers to a number of questions having to do with library cataloguing. This paper answers questions such as “1.Reflect on your own personal experiences with a library catalogue. Discuss the type of catalogue, classification system, and subject headings scheme with which you are most familiar. Identify where you used this catalogue (i.e. elementary, middle, or high school, college, or public library). Did you find it helpful or confusing? Were you taught to use the catalogue or did you have to learn on your own?”; “Discuss the purposes of a library catalogue and why it is important to have good cataloguing, include a brief description of the process a cataloguer goes through to catalogue an information package. What resources does a cataloguer need?”; “Develop selection criteria and system requirements (hardware, software, vendor support, training, etc.) necessary for a school media center or small public library system”; “Choose a computer-based system (such as Follett, SIRSI, Winnebago spectrum) and evaluate it using your criteria for selection and list of components”; and “Based on your evaluation, write a detailed recommendation to purchase (or not to purchase) the system reviewed”.
