Cataloging and Organizing Microcomputer Software--Where Do We Go from First Base?
Choi, Susan E.
This position paper addresses general topics to be considered when organizing library software collections. Tasks involved in organizing and cataloging educational software collections are discussed, including arrangement/classification; the type of catalog; descriptions of the software; the general materials designator; storage requirements; and identification and warning labels. This paper covers each of these areas and concludes with an explanation of how the Santa Clara County Office of Education Review (California) has handled its software collection. Attachments include a software cataloging form; worksheet scope notes and instructions; a master code sheet; a filled in cataloging form, and a sample printout listing science software with cataloging information. A six-item bibliography is included. (Author/THC)
