Copy Cat

1 May 2008

Things have been slow-going because Mary was out of town for three weeks, so I was supervising the copy catalogers, not leaving much time for subject heading work. Two weeks ago we had big trouble with the DSL connection that couldn’t be fixed, so we had to cancel library committee work. The problem is something to do with how we are connecting the laptop to the Veriz*n DSL. Aida had to speak with Veriz*n reps three weeks ago about this (Mary was out of town), and it seems to be something like… if we just connect directly with the phone cord, and don’t enter the login information through the Veriz*n login screen, it looks like we’re illegally accessing the connection… I hope this is straightened out.

This week I also came early to help with copy cataloging because one of the volunteers couldn’t make it. We did focus on the Quakerism (A) section, though, which requires more looking at OCLC than other sections, which is work I would have to do anyway.

New LCSH of interest: Human ecology.
