A new edition of this best-selling textbook reintroduces the topic of library cataloging from a fresh, modern perspective. Not many books merit an eleventh edition, but this popular text does. Newly updated, Introduction to Cataloging and Classification provides an introduction to descriptive cataloging based on contemporary standards, explaining the basic tenets to readers without previous experience, as well as to those who merely want a better understanding of the process as it exists today. The text opens with the foundations of cataloging, then moves to specific details and subject matter such as Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records (FRBR), Functional Requirements for Authority Data (FRAD), the International Cataloging Principles (ICP), and RDA. Unlike other texts, the book doesn't presume a close familiarity with the MARC bibliographic or authorities formats; ALA's Anglo-American Cataloging Rules, 2nd Edition, revised (AACR2R); or the International Standard Bibliographic Description (ISBD). Subject access to library materials is covered in sufficient depth to make the reader comfortable with the principles and practices of subject cataloging and classification. In addition, the book introduces MARC, BIBFRAME, and other approaches used to communicate and display bibliographic data. Discussions of formatting, presentation, and administrative issues complete the book; questions useful for review and study appear at the end of each chapter.
Organized chronologically, this book features brief essays that cover the explosive changes in the American culinary landscape over the last 25 years, showcasing 100 recipes along with colorful sidebars and archival photographs that capture the highlights of this history.
The authors have been married for 40 years and have put many things in their respective stomachs over those four decades, and much of that input has been delicious, if not incredible. Simply put, they both love food. One enjoys cooking, the other enjoys eating. They're like an extra lyric from the song "Love and Marriage," with plates of food instead of a horse and carriage. But all has not been smooth sailing in their kitchen. It has been a marriage with its fair share of food fights. For instance, he can't stand herring and she can't stand shrimp. Please join the authors as they share different perspectives on a series of subjects, a twist on a he said-she said argument centered around food. No pies will be thrown in this food fight, no dishes broken, no expensive Waterford crystal shattered (the authors don't own any crystal). Instead, they reveal their likes and dislikes, as well as reverence for a good meal, by responding separately to twenty specific prompts--as either a cook or eater. Answers were not shared until each author finished writing their respective answer, which led to a few surprises. In the book, the authors discuss a range of topics from "What I Eat When I Eat Alone" to "A Nostalgia Meal" to "You Say Potluck, I Say Buffet," and many more, including their personal favorite: "Five People-Dead or Alive-to Invite to Dinner." The book is partly about food but mostly about being in a relationship. Anyone who loves to cook or eat and is in a relationship will appreciate the insights, as well as the squabbles, in She Cooks, He Eats. Dinner is now being served. All hail the cook! And don't forget to tip your waitstaff.
