Resource Description and Access (RDA) and Machine-Readable Cataloging (MARC) are the primary standards used in the creation of catalog records. This hands-on workshop will take participants beyond the basics of cataloging books and explore RDA and MARC more deeply. Participants will learn how to catalog materials such as kits, three-dimensional artifacts, non-English language materials, video games, and more!
