compile your list of descriptors / subjects for each item. Please send me part 1 of this assignment by 9/22 and complete/submit the rest of the
assignment (use the same file) by 9/29.

This is the area in which Ive place some information about the item. This could be a scan from a books title page, a URL for a website, etc. Base your cataloging

add certain information but you dont have access to it, just discuss this in the Your thoughts column.

Here is an image of the cover, the title page, and some of the publishing information. The book also has a forward by Margaret Atwood (who wrote a
review of the book, as well, an excerpt of which is on the cover).
What do you do with all the information splayed across the coverthe review, the best book of the year, mention of a previous novel, national bestseller ?
Why? I generate an idea of what the material is about and determine its interest to me personally.

Here's an odd little twist on a well-known novel. The image on the left is the title page; on the right is a slightly cleaner version of the title information. Where (if
anywhere) does Hawthorne fit into the description? Damrosch wrote the music, Lathrop wrote the libretto, but all of this was based on Hawthorne's work, and if
you look at the score (Google books,
http://books.google.com/books?id=QU4IAQAAMAAJ&printsec=frontcover&dq=scarlet+letter+inauthor:Hawthorne&hl=en&sa=X&ei=vqwCUt_oIfGCyAH7wo
HYAw&ved=0CEUQ6AEwBA#v=onepage&q=scarlet%20letter%20inauthor%3AHawthorne&f=false you see that the opening scene is pretty closely tied to the
first two chapters of the book. I would put Hawthorne as the Source of this piece
Your thoughts
If you don't know
Hawthorn'es Scarlet
Letter, you might look it
up, since the opera is
based on the story. If
you have a hard time
reading the font above,
the publisher is Breitkopf
& Hartel, in Leipzig, and
the opera is copyright
1896.

Let's look at some music. Here is a scan of the cover of the booklet and the disc itself.
OK, what is the title? Clearly the creators of this disc did not take 7030. Is it
Canada: Rough Guide or The Rough Guide to the music of Canada or Music: Rough Guide: Canada or ???

Does it matter which one you choose? Why/why not? YES! It matters because searching for one or the other may limit your ability to find it!!! What do
you do with the other variations? (Put your ideas in the your thoughts column.)

7. Also in the news these days: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pzIlvy0gd5U this is an earlier video of a movement that still contines...
A few questions you might address in the cataloging or your gloss. What's the title? Does YouTube function as a publisher? If so, what's the role of Democracy
Now? I think the individual uploading the content is the publisher. (You might want to consider the term a standard film would use, and then translate this into
the appropriate Dublin Core category.) Would you record the names of the interviewer/interviewee? This short video references another, longer videodoes that
link or information belong in the record? Yes, I am not sure where!

Democracy Now! at http://owl.li/nzXy1. A national strike for a living wage
and the right to unionize in the fast food and retail sectors has spread across
seven cities. Hundreds of workers walked off the job Thursday in
Milwaukee, and before that in Chicago, St. Louis, Kansas City, Detroit, Flint
and New York City. "What else do we have to lose? We are already slowly
dying in our day to day lives. So why not speak up, and stand up, and let the
nation know that we are suffering? This is this is really a cry for help. This
great nation should not turn its back on working class people that need
help," says our guest Terrance Wise, who works at both Burger King and
Pizza Hut and is a member of the Stand Up Kansas City campaign.

Finally, take a zine you have and write down the information you think ought to be in a catalog record. You should not put this in either DC or
Marc for nowjust make your own fields and enter the appropriate metadata into them. If you are not sure how to tag something, for now just note
that you would like that information in the record somewhere. If you have a lot of information in a field (like a really really long table of contents)
just put a few entries and note that you would add the remainder if you were cataloging the zine online.

After you have created the Dublin Core for #1-7 and your own take on #8 thats all you have to do for the 9/22 assignment.
Congratulations! Now submit it through D2L (use the dropbox for assignment 1 part 1, under the assignments module at the
top of the course content in D2L).

Go back and fill in the marc fields in the above assignment. A few notes on this:
You need only to fill in the fields as tagged. You do NOT need to put indicators or subfields. See the example I provided at the beginning of the exercise. If
you have information in the Dublin Core record that doesn't fit in any of the marc fields I put in the table, put that data underneath the marc record (that is, after the
6xx fields) and note that it doesn't fit in any of the other fields.
You do NOT have to give the prescribed RDA or ISBD punctuation.
For the 5xx and 6xx fields, you do NOT have to indicate the specific marc field. As long as you think your data belongs in some 5xx field, put it there; the same
goes for the 6xx fields. Again, see the example I provided.
The point of this part of the exercise is to show where Dublin Core data and the Marc record correspond and where they diverge.
One easy place to find marc records to look at is Clic. Use the classic catalog available at http://clicnet.clic.edu/. Search for anything, but limit to the past few
years (or sort in reverse chronological order). When you pull up a bib record, click on the Marc Record link at the top center of the screen, just below the green
line and above the search box. Indeed, if you have two windows open, you can look at the marc display in one and the tagged display in the other.
When youre done with all this, send
