Lesson 4 - Cataloguing Introduction

A few teachers asked why me I needed to take ten courses about becoming a teacher-librarian. I should just show them the cataloguing glossaries. My head is spinning with all of these terms and technology. I hope I can get through this course because all of this information seems so overwhelming (as if the many search engines and directories topic didn't get my head swelling with new information). Off topic here.

I don't know which was more fun: actually reading the definitions or reading the discussion posts. Even though we did not have to post anything this week, it was pretty fun to read and I do not think anyone could resist posting the weird terms. This was a good assignment after reading about Search Engines to give our mind a break.

I was under the impression that The International Standard Book Number (ISBN) is 13 digits now because there are so many entries that they ran out of 10 digit combinations.
