Mōrena New Zealand cataloguers,
Apologies if you have seen this already but as this webinar will be deliberately using the
freely available Subject Headings Manual and LCSH PDF files I wanted to promote it.
The webinar itself is not free – but it’s cheap! If you’re prepared to wait six months it will be available free on the ALCTS YouTube channel (where you can also find two free videos introducing LSCH among many,
many others) : https://www.youtube.com/user/alctsce
Kia pai tō koutou rā/Have a nice day!
