Allegro Training's successful introduction to Cataloguing for non- professionals or newly qualified staff - recently over-subscribed - is to be run again in February 2003. Early booking is advised to avoid disappointment. Basic cataloguing is increasingly being undertaken by more senior library assistants and paraprofessionals. Allegro Training has recently launched a new course giving such library staff an outline training in the essential elements of basic cataloguing. At the end of the day delegates will * be able to identify the elements of a catalogue record * know how to check personal and corporate name headings * be able to construct a new catalogue record for basic books and serials * be able to understand a MARC formatted bought-in catalogue record * know where to find further information The course is interactiveand includes hands-on examples. It is not designed around any specific catalogue utility. The course is backed up with comprehensive handouts.
