Thank you all for liking the mock-up. and no, Toshu, I have not worked for a publisher before. I wish! I just looked at several books trying to copy the format, without giving the CIP info, which is why I added the little “available upon request” since I had seen that before.
An added instruction was posted today, “Your A1 submission must include at least 6 of the 8 areas of bibliographic description.” We may find that we need to add more details to the fictitious book. I like the idea of all working on the cataloging and comparing. Part of the assignment is to “Include relevant rules from AACR2” which I know I’d have difficulty with. This assignment is due next Friday, Sept. 19 so we should have our individual work done before then, Monday? Or this Friday?
Adding other information such as from spine, index, etc., might not be allowed. In real life you would have the book in hand instead of just these few parts. Yes, and how would we catalog the number of pages, size etc. Amber's catalog samples are great! We should ask for clarification if some of this info can be included. Tomorrow’s Elluminate meeting will be a chance – so I’ll keep it in mind.
More on all else later – it’s been a rough day…sorry.
