More Records Complete...

After I got home from work/school today I took a few hours to work on creating MARC records for the large course assignment.  I followed the model of other students and used the MARC tag information I could find online.

While the process was very tedious and time consuming it really wasn't that bad.  In about two hours I was able to create 7 MARC records from scratch.  I was very proud of myself; especially considering that my sources are all digital/online therefore they do not have existing records.  As a result I have had to create them from scratch.  With a few more hours invested tomorrow and on the weekend I hope to have all of my MARC records complete.

Then the next task will be creating a web page where I can have a directory or catalogue of the resources I have collected and recorded.

The process will  have to continue another day.  As for now I am off to watch TV then read (both of which will be in English and not MARC!).
