[AISLE-Share] MARC records

[Email list for the Association of Illinois School Library Educators]

I tend to go into Titlewave and pull the brief summary and then look at the
subjects they list and decide which of those to add as well.  You could
also do a brief search in other libraries (I use a couple local public
libraries) and see what they include in their record for the book.

Hope this helps!
