ANNOUNCEMENT:
SERIALS CATALOGING COOPERATIVE TRAINING PROGRAM WORKSHOP
March 17-18, 2000  Chapel Hill, North Carolina

The CONSER Basic Serials Cataloging Workshop will be offered at the
William and Ida Friday Center of the University of North Carolina at
Chapel Hill.  The one and a half day workshop will run from 1:00 PM
Friday, March 17 through 5:00 PM Saturday, March 18.  This workshop
immediately follows the Ninth North Carolina Serials Conference, sponsored
by the School of Library and Information Science of North Carolina Central
University on March 16 and 17th, also held at the Friday Center.

Under the auspices of the national Cooperative Online Serials Program
(CONSER), the Serials Cataloging Cooperative Training Program (SCCTP)
provides authoritative training materials and trained serials experts to
enable broad-ranging education in the field of serials cataloging.  The
trainers are Frieda Rosenberg of UNC-Chapel Hill and Tom Ray of the
Library of Virginia. This workshop is particularly directed toward new
serials catalogers or general catalogers working with various formats
without specialized training for handling serials.  Instruction in both
print and electronic serials cataloging will be included.

This workshop is supported by the Resources and Technical Services Section
(RTSS) of the North Carolina Library Association and by a grant from
NCLA's Special Projects Grants fund.  The University of North Carolina at
Chapel Hill has also helped to make this workshop possible.

The cost for the SCCTP workshop will be $75.00.  Registrants for the Basic
Serials Cataloging Workshop who are current members of the Resources and
Technical Services Section of the North Carolina Library Association
and/or registrants for the Ninth North Carolina Serials Conference will
receive a $25.00 discount.

Please note that the registration deadline is February 11, 2000 and that
registration is limited to 28 participants (on a first-received,
first-accepted basis).
