Dear Everyone,

                         I just wanted to know Is manual cataloguing necessary in school library in respect of school inspection. As i had worked earlier in ICSE board school and was having manual cataloguing done for inspection purpose. Now in computerised library how cataloguing can be done. We are now using barcoding system for day to day working of library. Kindly suggest.

Regards,

Archana Prasad

As the library is already automated therefore I guess there is no need of manual cataloging to be prepared for inspection.

Dear mam,
I am assuming that you have good OPAC. Then no need to maintain manual cataloguing separately. It is nothing but wastage of time, money, effort. Kindly paid attention those time and effort to your OPAC and integrated systems database to '0' error for inspection purpose.

Dear Madam,

There different forms of catalog in a traditional library but in-case of automated library system, OPAC itself a source of catalog. Modern LMS provide the ISBD view also which is equal to traditional catalogs.

In your case, you may download the 'list of the books' or the whole catalog from your system and keep them for users in print form(If required) or you can install a OPAC search kiosk. 

Thank you.
