Who has a Library of Congress Authority Record?

Who has two thumbs and a Library of Congress Authority Record?


I Have a Library of Congress Authority Record! *points at self with thumbs* (You knew that was coming, right?)


Available for viewing here, but I'm just going to post the darn thing, as it is a personal triumph. One of those goals I said I wanted to hit by 30. (As I'm only 2 months into 30, I'll fudge it and consider this achieved.)

Big thanks to Anne, the Cataloging Goddess at NCSU who has not only kept me updated along the way, but delivered me printouts of my MARC record, of my book's display in NCSU's catalog, in WorldCat, and today emailed me about the authority record. Every writer should have their own personal cataloging angel to let them know when they've achieved immortality ;)

How can I get a copy of your book in Canada? The publisher doesn't offer shipping to Canada?

Thanks,

he does, but ships internationally by special order only. Contact Robert directly at bellowingark @ comcast.net and he can take your order by email, or he can give you the full price with shipping and you can send a cheque. Thanks for wanting a copy :)

*grin* For folks who are not close, I've offered to sign if they're willing to ship to me (in the US media rate is cheap). if it's easier for you to order a copy and have it shipped to me for me to then mail to you, we can do that too. My work address works well enough for that -

Colleen, Assoc Head

NCSU Libraries

Raleigh NC 27695.

Toss a DM to me (as warmaiden) on twitter or friendfeed with the address you'd like for me to ship it to you at. Convoluted, I know, but as good as I can do until I get to visit Canadialand!

I can't send you a DM on twitter as you aren't following me :p That was my original idea, to ask you via Twitter, but I had to resort to messaging this way. you can find me under acadian_jl

Cheers,
Jer

PS Hope you're feeling better.

First Impressions & Customer Service Failures

We all know how important first impressions are, right? It's sort of like how Anne McCaffrey's dragons "impress" on new dragonriders-to-be. (Yes, I'm feeling nostalgic with a new herd of freshmen on campus.) First impressions are essential, particularly when you're talking about freshmen, wet behind the ears, completely disoriented and overwhelmed by being at a state school for their first college experience, and stressed out by trying to find their classrooms and last-minute add/drops on their schedule. I usually don't think of them this way, because I'm not a fundraiser or in the alumni office, but the University at large should also think about the fact that these are the kids we hope will call this university 'home' even after they leave. (That could be my small liberal arts college experience shining through, though.) If nothing else, due to UTC's abysmal retention rates, you'd think the entire university would be bending over back...

Email Lists: A Dose of Common Sense

Let's chat, folks. I know there are tons of things in LibraryLand we could discuss, but for a moment, let's talk about e-mail lists. I know quite a few people (like Griffey ) who think that email lists are the (outdated) devil. I happen to like receiving things in email because I haven't yet figured how to acceptably integrate feedreaders into my life, and I prefer conversations via e-mail than via the comment section of blogs, whcih I never remember to go back and check after I've left some inflammatory comment. Anyway, we can discuss fuddy-duddies like myself and our love of the e-mail later. We need to chat about lists, though. If you've been on the NEWLIB list lately, you likely know why. Lists are good things, if only to keep yourself updated on conversations/arguments/discussion/resource lists that generally make the rounds when people query via email. Lists are very often archived somewhere for future reference, which is super-useful is you know that someo...

On the Great Myth of the Librarian Grays

Lately, there's been a lot of discussion (and bitching) about the promised graying/retirement within the library profession that was supposed to open up endless job opportunities for new librarians. The LITA-L email list, a recent American Libraries article , and a post by Peter Brantley calling for an overthrow by the young'uns have all been pretty popular topics of late. January 15, 2004, Rachel Singer Gordon published a piece in Library Journal titled "NextGen: Get Over the "Graying" Profession Hype" . I say again: this was 2004. It would appear no one took the advice, given that today - despite very obvious evidence to the contrary, American Libraries just printed an ill-advised article on recruiting undergrads to the profession , citing the graying of the profession as a reason for folks to sign up for library work. Jessamyn West, in her recent post "show us the numbers re: new librarian jobs" , calls for more than the ever-present empty a...
