I am interested in getting suggestions from list participants about what you find to be the best resources (books, serials, or electronic) that could help me focus the general cataloging and collection management courses I have taken to serials-specific situations. Since my program has no courses dealing specifically with serials issues, I'm on my own, sort of, with your help, hopefully! Please respond to my e-mail address below, and if there is sufficient response, I will post a summary back to the list. Thank you! _____________________________ Dennis Goodyear Library Assistant, Serials University of Denver Penrose Library Phone: 303-871-2446 dgoodyea@du.edu
