Over the past several months, the library blogosphere has been joined by a few catalogers who are blogging anonymously. They've been writing some good stuff, so I'd like to feature them here and recommend that you add them to your RSS reader.
First up is Cataloging Lovely. I love yesterday's post: Is HTML the gateway drug?
I am not a computer geek. I studied music, cooked in kitchens, and went to library school. I did not spend my youth in darkened rooms fiddling with DOS screens. I do not play World of Warcraft. I do not know what a registry code is. I have never taken a computer class, save for my 8th-grade typing class (which, incidentally, has served me well). And yet, somehow I am strangely drawn to HTML.
As a metadata librarian, formerly known as cataloger, I can definitely relate to this post. I'm addicted to the little queries I write in XQuery that do powerful things to find and manipulate metadata.
