I spent today doing two things: practicing my cataloging and discussing the things that I have discussed or done on the Library Media Practicum Checklist with my cooperating librarian. I started out by cataloging some books. Pam had some new books donated to the library and needed to figure out where they should go in our library. They were already in the system, we just had to figure out where the best place would be for our students to find them. I used a combination of the Sears catalog and some other MARC records (LoC) to determine where best to put them. It was interesting because it was a bit ahead of where we are in the cataloging course so I kind of feel like I got a small preview of how to use these sources before we even got to learning about them.

In addition, we spent some time going over all of the things that we have already covered from the list that Dennis provided. I realized that in the short time that I have been working with Pam this school year, she has already covered many topics and information that are necessary to know about our library.
