Training Tutorials for Cataloging Departments (Source: University of Georgia)

Although this training tutorial is designed to give the UGA Cataloging Department Database Maintenance staff an overview of fundamental terminology and tools used in the department, it may also be useful for other departmental or library staff. It includes demos, interactive tutorials, and exercises which are of wider appeal. Although the tutorial is organized into distinct units which can be completed separately, the units are designed to build on knowledge.
