Fwd: cataloguing librarian job hunt
by emfaed 16 Mar '08

16 Mar '08

Forwarded message ... Dear all, I am an experienced cataloguer aged 58, working in South Africa. My husband and I are currently in the process of being sponsored by our kids to obtain NZ residence. I have worked on the INNOPAC and Unicorn library systems, using OCLC as the bibliographic utility to contribute to and to capture bibliographic descriptions from, for local use. I can offer assistance in training and in the cataloguing and coding of all formats of material except maps and music. You might have a staff member who are contemplating retirement towards the end of the year and I may be of service. My CV will be sent on request. Kind regards Ina van der Merwe hcjvande(a)pan.uzulu.ac.za -- NOTICE: Please note that this e-mail, and the contents thereof, is subject to the standard University of Zululand e-mail disclaimer which may be found at: http://www.ict.uzulu.ac.za/electronic_mail_disclaimer.html

Cataloguing Advice Needed in Mexico
by kate Innes 05 Mar '08

05 Mar '08

Hi there, I'm a New Zealand librarian currently living in Mexico City. I recently started working for a company that sells e books and e book software to libraries in Latin America (the Overdrive software that Auckland City Libraries has). Part of my job is to create MARC records for the e books that the company sells via Overdrive. I'm relatively new to cataloguing, and as there are no other librarians here in the company, I'm wondering if someone on this list would be kind enough to help me with a query relating to the cataloguing of e books (more specifically field 533). I've searched the internet but can't find an exact answer to my question. If there is someone out there who has experience in cataloguing e books, and would be willing to help me with a (very brief!) question, (or can advise me who I might approach), I would love to hear from you at kinnes(a)librisite.com. Many thanks and warm regards from Mexico, Kate Innes Librisite de México, S.A. de C.V. Tel. 5272 6806 Email: kinnes(a)librisite.com
