Kia ora Benjamin, The August issue of Catapult (newsletter of the LIANZA Cataloguing Special Interest Group) should be up soon at https://lianza.org.nz/resources/describenz/catapult/ (granted LIANZA staff are able to upload to the site during lockdown). It will have a number of related resources that may be able to help you, and past issues will as well. I will be posting to this list once it is up on the site. This document may be a good place to start and hopefully others have some ideas as well. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1tPa7Lu0CcvId57SqextU8VM7XSlhc7JflN0a20RR...

I don’t know why it was scrubbed and uploaded as an HTML attachement. I would like some suggestions on professional resources, as I would love to work in acquisitions, search librarianship, or especially cataloguing in the near future and was wondering if there are any updated textbooks or resources I should look at, meetings or people I could talk to (I understand RDA and MARC have had some updates recently too)? I have copies of Developing Library and Information Center Collections and Fundamentals of Collection Development and Management (2014-2016 editions). I have graduated with the level 5 diploma in library and information studies and an MIS and have recently obtained work in IM/ records management, but I want to keep my interests and options open. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thank you, Benjamin.
