_____________________________ORGANIZE! YOUR PROFESSIONAL BOOKS - 1
ORGANIZE YOUR PROFESSIONAL BOOKS
This cataloging format is designed for use by business, government,
schools, and individuals who need to catalog detailed information
about books, articles and technical papers. You can catalog a
library and then locate a book, or article in a magazine, by any
one of up to 21 characteristics. For example, you'll be able to
get a list of all of references to George Washington in a history
library or find all the information on chemical recovery boilers in
a technical library.
Another nice feature of this format is that it can be used with
books, magazines, newspapers, technical papers or almost any other
published material. Entries can be made for individual articles
allowing you to list the individually unique information contained
in each article.
The catalog name for this format is: PROBOOKS
The following is a recommended list of the information that can be
entered using the default format. The number in parenthesis shows
the number of characters in that line (field). Keep in mind that
