How do you solve a cataloging problem like The Vista?

This presentation introduces complex serials cataloging through the experience of re-cataloging The Vista, the school newspaper of the University of Central Oklahoma. Since its inception in 1903, The Vista experienced a couple dozen frequency changes, suffered six university name changes, was christened with different aliases for some summer issues, all of which that not only make serials cataloging rightfully earn its difficult reputation but also were left for the present catalogers to handle by our predecessors from decades before. Accurately capturing a serial's bibliographic eccentricities is essential for making the information within discoverable, whether directly by a patron or by colleagues in ILL and Public Services. This session will cover creating new bibliographic records for serials, connecting related records, sub-series, frequency changes, publisher name changes, and resources for standardized holdings description.N

Beware the Syndicate: An Examination of Syndicated Materials within Digital Copies of College Student Newspapers

This study examines copyright concerns of syndicated materials within digital copies of college student newspapers. A sample of 100 colleges were inspected to determine if archived issues of the student newspapers were available online and if so, did the newspapers contain syndicated material. The collection was further examined to establish if any effort was made to exclude the copyrighted material or if an explanation was provided for the inclusion of the material. This study shows approximately one third of the student newspapers that are available online contain syndicated material and only twenty percent made an effort to reduce copyright infringement or document fair use. Considering these findings and the prevalence of digitizing college student newspapers, more research is needed in this field.Master of Science in Library Scienc

\u3cem\u3eThe Kohn-Hennig Library: A Catalog\u3c/em\u3e

August Kohn and his daughter Helen Kohn Hennig were two of South Carolina\u27s greatest book collectors. The object of their collecting was South Caroliniana, in all its variety. Their combined library of more than four thousand titles, now a part of the South Caroliniana Library at the University of South Carolina, includes novels, short stories, and poetry; biographies, sermons, and military histories; pamphlets, maps, and periodicals; and much more. The collection includes both the exceedingly rare and the too easily overlooked (a rich collection of pamphlets, promotional material, and business histories). No corner of the state is excluded, and no subject ignored. The library is particularly rich in Jewish material, a topic especially dear to both collectors. But the wide range of titles catalogued in The Kohn-Hennig Library will inspire, intrigue, and fascinate readers, researchers, and collectors everywhere. In addition to identifying all the titles in that collection, this publication pays tribute to Kohn and Hennig, to book collectors everywhere, and to the joys of book collecting. The volume includes essays by Allen H. Stokes, executive director of the South Caroliniana Library, and Belinda Gergel, a retired history professor and former president of the Historic Columbia Foundation. Excerpted from USC Press
