1. Cataloguing websites at the National Library - Helen Jenkins, Senior Collection Description Librarian, Serials Cataloguing team, National Library of New Zealand
The National Library has been creating catalogue records for websites since we began the Te Puna Web Directory in the early 2000s, but how we do it has changed markedly in that relatively short period of time. In this talk I will give some background on web archiving and cataloguing at NLNZ, before moving on to look at how we use RDA, and other standards and tools, to describe this material now, at the particular challenges and issues it presents, and at the various types of sites we work with.
2. Metadata manipulation: using MarcEdit - Maja Batinica, Team leader - Metadata, University of Auckland Library
How the Metadata team at University of Auckland Libraries and Learning services are using MarcEdit to improve metadata workflows and processing. Marcedit, a freely available comprehensive library metadata editing application helps us to work effectively with a wide range of library metadata standards and in a variety of specific tasks. Data transformation, enhancing vendor records, building Marc records from spreadsheets, merging records, Z39.50 harvesting, enhancing vendor records, integration with other systems are some of MarcEdit features that we are using in everyday workflows and for selected projects.
3. Cataloguing rare materials: where do DCRM and RDA fit? - Nina Whittaker, Cataloguing Librarian, Auckland War Memorial Museum
In February 2020 I was fortunate to attend the Australasian Rare Books Summer School (RBSS) in Sydney, focusing on the intensive 5-day rare books cataloguing workshop. Taught by Deborah J. Leslie, an editor of the Descriptive Cataloguing of Rare Materials (Books) (DCRM(B)) standard, it covered a diverse range of subjects – analysing paper, controlled vocabularies, and the transcription of Olde Englishe. However, the most important takeaway was how DCRM(B) positions itself relative to RDA, and how this relationship is forecast to evolve into the future. This presentation will ground practical cataloguing tips for rare books within a firm foundation of DCRM’s context and relationship with RDA.
4. We are important, and so is our work - Charlotte Christensen, Senior Collection Description Librarian, National Library of New Zealand
Cataloguing is important to libraries but the role isn't always viewed that way even by practitioners. It's time to be active in claiming our rightful professional role in making our libraries the places they are. To do that, we need to start with ourselves.
LIGHTNING TOPICS:
5. Engage your users with Ngā Upoko Tukutuku! - Co-presenters: David Church, Resources Specialist (Metadata) and Research Bank Administrator, and Donna Salmon, Subject Librarian, Unitec Institute of Technology
Reach out to your Māori and Pākeha users - both the reo-fluent. And the reo-curious. Yes, you can have fun with Māori Subject Headings! And improve access to not only your institution’s print and digital resources. But also to the Māori dimension in your place and your people. And how we do that at Te Whare Wānanaga O Wairaka - Unitec Institute of Technology here in Mount Albert, Auckland.
6. The power of 9 - Charlotte Christensen, Senior Collection Description Librarian, National Library of New Zealand
There are always times when a cataloguer has to add information to help their library's staff or customers, but what do you do when the request conflicts with the standards? Or when it only applies to your library's copies and so isn't useful for anyone else? Here's a chance to brush up on your local MARC fields - what they are, how they work, and how to recognise them in other records.
7. Updates from the National Library - Anoushka McGuire, Team Leader, Cataloguing Team 1, National Library of New Zealand
The official date for when the Beta RDA Toolkit becomes the official RDA Toolkit has been set at December 15, 2020 and this short update will fill you in on the work the National Library has been doing on our Policy Statements and Application Profile as well as our tentative implementation timeline. Additionally, I will share other updates about the National Library’s cataloguing policies including our response to the recent Program for Cooperative Cataloguing’s (PCC) options regarding ISBD punctuation.
