Program:

Basic Subject Cataloging Using LCSH is designed to give attendees a
solid
foundation in the principles and practices of subject cataloging using
LCSH, an introduction to the most important tools, and practice in
formulating heading strings using subdivisions.Many topics were
deliberately left out of the curriculum in order to cover the basics
without overwhelming attendees and to allow time for active
participation
through exercises. Designed as a two-day course, the curriculum
includes 15
sessions including the following: A review of the history and
principles of
subject cataloging Examination of tools, tricks, and tips relating to
subject cataloging Application and use of names as subjects and use of
subdivisions Subject heading records and coding Specialized areas and
introduction to SACO Exercises and group discussions.

Prepared through an initiative by the Program for Cooperative
Cataloging
(PCC) and the Association for Library Collections & Technical Services
(ALCTS).
