Through lectures, visual aids, and in-class exercises, workshop participants will be introduced to and gain some practical experience in using Descriptive Cataloging of Rare Materials (Cartographics), or DCRM(C). The workshop will focus on the descriptive portions of the bibliographic record, following the scope of DCRM(C), with special emphasis on the differences between Descriptive Cataloging of Rare Materials (Books) and DCRM(C). The workshop is suitable for those with working cataloging experience who wish to be introduced to rare cartographic materials cataloging according to DCRM(C).
