جمعية مجموعات المكتبات والخدمات الفنية Association for Library Collections & Technical Services
(ALCTS) التابعة لجمعية
المكتبات الأمريكية American Library Association (ALA) المنتدى
الإلكتروني المجاني E-forum بعنوان: "BISAC and Beyond: Making Word-Based Classification Your
Own"، وفيما
يلي التفاصيل:
Description: Many
libraries are considering moving away from traditional classification systems
like Dewey or LC in favor of word-based systems based on BISAC, a
classification scheme used by book retailers and publishers. Reclassifying a
library collection takes thought, planning, courage, and sweat. How can a
word-based classification system benefit your customers? Join the conversation
and talk to other libraries who have already ditched Dewey or are considering
making the switch. Topics for discussion may include:
* Why switch to a
BISAC-based system?
* Adapting BISAC for the
needs of your customers
* Planning the conversion
process
* Tips, tricks, and FAQs
for reclassifying collections
* Using BISAC for
collection development
* Rethinking the ‘flow’ of
your nonfiction collection
* Merchandising with BISAC
* BISAC and the MARC record
* Leveraging BISAC in the
OPAC to add discovery points
