People who run small, rural libraries without formal education will use this book to help them make informed decisions about the organization of their library and the information it holds.

It serves as an excellent tool for staff development of paraprofessionals.Noncatalogers can organize library collections when they use information available which has been created by professional catalogers. This books explains the tools of the trade, becoming familiar with all the parts of the record, how to adapt another's work cutting and pasting descriptions.The practice problems will be useful to workshop presenters who will use this book in teaching newly hired librarians who will be working, often unassisted, in small libraries.
