The battle of the mis-cataloged books rages on.
The library technician accused of poor cataloging skills says the high school librarian should \”change the data on the library cards\” himself, and stop blaming her for problems surrounding at least 2,800 books he says were miscataloged before they were sent to him.
She has written a letter than says, in part \”\”Is there but one standard by which books may be cataloged? If so, whose standard should that be? Should the standard for elementary students be the same as for high school or college students?\”
Now I\’m no cataloger, but I did take a couple classes, and I swear there was some mention of standards somewhere in there, and it seems like a Librarian would know more than a Technician on such an issue, but what do I know?
