Cataloguing Australian Books

[Dianne <waynemck@VOL.NET>]

For those who are not from Australia, but have the fortune to have some
of our Australian Published books but cannot get the records, you can
visit the National Library of Australia catalogue and copy cat the
records there.
Takes a bit longer than downloading records, but not nearly as long as
original cataloguing.

The web site is http://ilms.nla.gov.au/webpac-bin/wgbroker?new+-access+top

this should take you directly to the search page, if not, then just keep
making the URL shorter until it works.

We have come to use this copycat method from the libraries in the USA
and UK to reduce time in our cataloguing, it works really well.
