Worked in library media center for 1 hour, 30 minutes

o Based on the weeding of the reference section of the Tremper High School Library Media Center that I conducted last week, I used the jobber Titlesource3 from Baker and Taylor to work on selecting and ordering these updated reference materials.

o One problem that I ran into was finding updated titles of the same materials. I talked with Ms. Stamm about this problem and she explained that with this issue it is sometimes necessary to go right to the publisher to find the right edition of a title. While this was more time consuming, I was able to located additional materials that were not found by using the Tremper High School library catalog and looked up those titles that were not found using Titlesource 3.

o Next time I work in the library, my job is to look for these specific titles that were not located on Titlesource3 by going directly to the publisher’s website.
