Class Description: Intermediate Rare Book Cataloging will dive deeper into concepts discussed in Rare Book Cataloging: An Introduction, expanding on topics such as copy-specific features (like provenance and binding description) and selecting cataloging copy. As in the introductory course, there will be a focus on the description of physical features of books, as well as on approaches to tackling some common puzzles encountered in rare materials cataloging. We will engage in a number of in-class exercises together and talk about short, optional readings. The course will include numerous examples to illustrate concepts and to teach problem-solving skills.
