Cataloging Video Recordings – Online Class, January 9-February 10

Video materials make up a significant portion of today’s libraries’ collections. Attend this five-week online workshop to learn about copy and original cataloging of video recordings in a variety of formats, including DVDs, Blu-Ray discs, and streaming video. Topics will include series/episodes, cast notes, editions, and access points. Audience: Library staff with some knowledge of AACR2, MARC records, and cataloging. This workshop is approved for the Cataloging Certificate Program. This class will be held online from January 9 to February 10. Class participants will access the course web site in order to read materials, discuss issues in a forum, and complete projects and assignments. The class is held asynchronously, which means that participants are not required to be online at any particular time during the five weeks; however, there is a class schedule with due dates that participants are expected to meet. The instructor will interact with the participants during the course to offer feedback and provide explanations of material.
