[Evergreen-catalogers] Questions

[Andrea Buntz Neiman]

Hi Sharon,

Regarding item #3 -- There is official documentation, and several sites 
have individual cataloging procedure manuals (I would caution that some 
may be on different versions and/or using customizations) -- cataloging 
processes haven't changed all that much between versions, though.

Here is the official documentation for EG cataloging (newest version 
first):
http://docs.evergreen-ils.org/2.3/_cataloging_2.html
http://docs.evergreen-ils.org/2.2/_cataloging_2.html
http://docs.evergreen-ils.org/2.1/html/cataloging.html
http://docs.evergreen-ils.org/2.0/draft/html/cataloging.html
http://docs.evergreen-ils.org/1.6/draft/html/cataloguing.html

Some of the more basic stuff that hasn't changed much will be found in 
the 1.6 docs, and newer features in the later docs.

Two systems with extensive cataloging documentation online are Evergreen 
Indiana & Sitka (remember, these may have site-specific customizations 
&/or workflows):
EG Indiana http://www.in.gov/library/3380.htm
Sitka http://docs.sitka.bclibraries.ca/Sitka/current/html/cat.html

Hope this helps!

A.
