[Libs-Or] ALA eCourse: Using and Understanding Library of Congress Classification

Fri Aug 19 11:36:35 PDT 2016

Earlier this week, I posted about an ALA eCourse focused on understanding the Dewey Decimal System: http://listsmart.osl.state.or.us/pipermail/libs-or/2016-August/022132.html. Well, there’s also going to be a course about Library of Congress Classification, and it starts on October 3rd.

The course is asynchronous which means you log in to do each week’s work at times that fit your schedule. There are no live sessions. Details are below and here: http://www.alastore.ala.org/detail.aspx?ID=11181.

By the way, both books mentioned below are available to borrow from the State Library’s LIS collection.
