[AISLE-Share] MARC records

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

I do whatever it takes to make the books easily accessible.  So I always
add the subject headings, a summary, content, ISBN, edition,
paperback/hardcover, format, publisher, etc.  Basically I fill in all the
fields.  I want there to be as much information as possible in the record.

Sometimes I add things in the subject headings that aren't technically a
subject heading because I know kids and teachers will be looking for
particular books and using certain terminology.  I do this with picture
books for older readers (Picture books for older readers as it is in the
record) because I have middle school teachers who use picture books and I
want them to find those books easily.

Do whatever makes it easy for your community!


Happily Ever After,

Karrie Fisher
Media Center Specialist
