1) Paperback Book Unlocking the Mysteries of Cataloging: A Workbook of Examples (Library & Information Science Text) by Libraries Unlimited. This cataloguing (so sue me, I´m Canadian, that´s how we spell it) workbook contains a couple of hundred exercises for people studying library cataloguing. A wide range of mostly good examples, some of which are well known, with a bonus of AACR2 references applicable for each entry. The book suffers from some typos, which are anathema in this field, and a hefty price tag for what is essentially a book of lists. However, if you have to have it you´re caught in the textbook trap anyway.¤ 2) Paperback Book Unlocking the Mysteries of Cataloging: A Workbook of Examples (Library & Information Science Text) by Libraries Unlimited. I ordered this book for a library science course, but the university provided the books for all students, so it wasn´t needed. The black and white photos were difficult to read with fuzzy images and very small print. It would be helpful to someone who needed to practice cataloging skills outside the classroom.¤ 3) Paperback Book Unlocking the Mysteries of Cataloging: A Workbook of Examples (Library & Information Science Text) by Libraries Unlimited. Supplementing existing textbooks with exercises that allow practice in description, classification, subject analysis, and MARC 21, this workbook pinpoints problem areas that arise in the cataloging of a wide variety of materials in public, school, special, and academic library settings. Real title pages and other necessary materials are used throughout. AACR2 rule numbers are included, as well as questions for consideration. MARC records are provided for some 150 titles, and a supplemental Web site provides full keys and further details. The site also aids teachers by providing indexes beyond those in the book. This book will appeal to all serious cataloging students as necessary practice for sharpening their skills, as well as to beginning catalogers in the large library environment. It will be a valuable addition as individual study material and for in-house training of catalogers.¤ Page Updated: Robert N.
