I arrived at the library at 8:30 a.m.
Today I began working on the textbook guideline that Jennie and I had discussed creating. I had to create it without the help of Classweb. I used the Library of C0ngress Classification Guideline website (http://www.loc.gov/catdir/cpso/lcco/) along with Worldcat to construct the list. The list is a guideline for catalogers to use when cataloging textbooks. Most programs would place all textbooks in the L classification instead of placing it where its subject matter would fall. I assigned each licensure program a range of call letters that their textbooks could be found in. I used a Google Spreadsheet to create this. I also created cutter numbers for the main textbook publishers. The spreadsheet can be found here: http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=tilE_OoTnHlFSzgnCTLoO9w&hl=en.
Also, working from a checklist given to me by Jennie, I went through the textbook section in the CMC (Curriculum and Materials Center) room and checked off what was there. I also used that time to see which publisher's books we had that were not on the list. I made a Google spreadsheet that listed each publisher that was not present on the checklist. (http://spreadsheets.google.com/ccc?key=tSLfhTo9ZjDN6n8F7jJXldw&hl=en) Through this list the library will know which publishers they need to contact.
I left the library at 6:00 p.m.
