[DCRM-L] Call for examples for Latin cataloging workshop

[Jennifer K. Nelson]

Dear DCRM-L List Members,

Jennifer MacDonald and I are going to be presenting a Preconference 
workshop this summer (2010) titled "Latin for Rare Materials 
Catalogers." We would like this workshop to be as useful as possible to 
the participants, meaning that, ideally, the examples we present during 
the course of the class will be drawn from "real-life" situations that 
pose particular challenges to a rare materials cataloger.

We are hereby putting out a call to this list for Latin title pages (and 
other prescribed sources of information where appropriate) that you have 
found particularly flummoxing - or particularly interesting - so we can 
use them as examples in our workshop. Since this workshop will encompass 
not just books, but also maps, graphics, music, etc. (with Latin title, 
creator and publication information), we would welcome any examples you 
would like to send us. Simply capture a digital image of the resource in 
question and email it to jnelson at law.berkeley.edu and include the 
subject heading "Latin Workshop Example"; please also include any 
particular questions about the item, if you have any. Please send us 
your examples by Friday, March 5th, 2010.

We look forward to hearing from you.

Jennifer (Nelson) and Jennifer (MacDonald)
