Map Cataloging Workshop
This looks like a great workshop, if you are in the greater NJ area. Mr. Andrew was an editor on
Maps and Related Cartographic Materials: Cataloging, Classification, and Bibliographic Control a book I've found helpful on many occasions.
Folks,I recently was invited to teach a new basic map cataloging workshop with PALINET, the OCLC regional office for Pennsylvania and surrounding states. If you are in the Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, West Virginia, northern Virginia, or southern New York area, or know of someone who is, (or even outside of this area and willing to travel!) and might be interested in attending a full-day basic map cataloging workshop this Fall then head here.The details are that it will be held at Rutgers University in Piscataway, NJ on October 27th from 9:30 a.m. until 3:30 p.m. Cost is $110 for PALINET members, $150 for other OCLC regional office members, and $200 for non-members. You can sign up online at the site I gave above. And, if you would like more details than what is given at the website feel free to contact me directly.Sincerely,Mr. Paige G. Andrew
