Mr. Tabinas, EISI
Afternoon Session:
Ms. Sharon Samaniego, librarian of De La Salle University-Dasmariñas gave us a lecture and hands-on training on encoding data using Destiny Library Manager.
Destiny Library ManagerTM combines circulation, cataloging, searching, reporting and management in one centrally installed library software system. Your students and faculty patrons access the system through any workstation with a supported web browser, through your district's network and the Internet. Destiny Library Manager is an easy-to-use, web-based library automation and management solution that offers:
Some issues and concerns were arised in encoding data in Cataloging Module.
She mentioned that all catalogers must be aware of the RDA or Resource Description Access, it is the Cataloging Rules for 20th Century.
Definition: RDA is is a standard for cataloguing that provides instructions and guidelines on formulating data for resource description and discovery. Intended for use by libraries and other cultural organizations such as museums and archives.
She also recommends that if the library doesn't have cataloging policies and procedures or cataloging manual.... must start creating their manual NOW! So any librarians who will be assigned as a cataloger will have a guide.
