Updated Terms of Reference for CatSIG
by Anoushka McGuire 20 Jan '17

20 Jan '17

Good afternoon New Zealand cataloguers, The CatSIG committee would like to share that our updated Terms of Reference were accepted by LIANZA Council at the December meeting, and are now live on the CatSIG site: http://www.lianza.org.nz/catsig These ToR were discussed and approved at the October 2016 CatSIG AGM. The biggest changes are the addition to our statement of purpose which explicitly states that CatSIG will support the development of international cataloguing standards, and the creation of the new key committee roles, representatives to ORDAC (the Oceania RDA Committee), of which there will be up to three. The establishment of ORDAC is part of the recent change in the RSC (RDA Steering Committee) governance structure and will provide an opportunity for New Zealand cataloguers to contribute directly to the development of RDA. There will be more information about these new roles shortly. Have a good weekend everyone!

Barcode scanners
by Dames, Rebecca 05 Dec '16

05 Dec '16

Kia ora koutou, Tis the season for giving, and I have been blessed to receive a brand-new barcode scanner at my desk this morning :) It’s fantastic! It got me thinking about all the time and frustration I had suffered with my old, temperamental one(s), that I put up with for far too long. So I’m sharing my joy with my new toy, and I’d like to encourage you to consider the usefulness of your scanner, and whether it’s time to submit an application for a new one, while people are in a giving sort of mood.

Suggestions wanted for new headings to include in Nga Upoko Tukutuku
by Anoushka McGuire 18 Oct '16

18 Oct '16

Tena kotou katoa, Te Whakakaokao (the Māori Subject Headings working group) is calling for more suggestions for new headings to include in Nga Upoko Tukutuku. We're having a hui in early December, so now's the perfect time to scour your shelves or talk to your reference staff about those collection items you couldn't find a good term for. You can suggest the Māori term you think is relevant or just give us the English equivalent, but either way we need to know what the resource is (ISBN and/or OCLC number are great identifiers) so we can take a look ourselves. We're also always interested in any questions you have about existing headings, particularly if you think the scope notes need expanding or if you think something else should be included. Suggestions and questions are welcome any time at reo(a)dia.govt.nz<mailto:reo@dia.govt.nz>, but with a hui coming up and a bit of space on the agenda for new suggestions it'd be great to get some requests in by mid-November. naku na Charlotte Christensen, on behalf of Te Whakakaokao
