Radical Cataloging List


This is a note I recently received. I've replaced the @ sign in the e-mail address with "at" to prevent harvesting by spammers.

Due to a perceived need, I've started a list devoted to discussions of cataloging from a radical perspective. (Discussing the meaning of the phrase "radical cataloging" is a perfectly appropriate list topic.) Unlike many lists devoted to library work that don't allow political discussion, this one welcomes it.

To join, send email to and put "subscribe radcat" in the message body.

If you'd like more information, please contact me privately.

Thanks,
Katia
