When I was a student, we had those nifty periodical guides, but now that we have online access to many, I'm not sure they even publish them any more. So, I turn to you, oh wise ones, to ask a periodicals cataloguing question. If you even catalogue your periodicals (I know some schools don't) how specific are you in the subject and title fields? I have a large pile of donated National Geographics, which have a wealth of information, but I'm not sure how best to help students access it. Currently, I am taking the time to put the headline on the cover as the 'remaining title' in 245 b but I am not including any of the various topics in the subject headings. I've considered putting article headings in a 505 field, but I'm not sure if it's worth the time it takes, especially if there is a source out there already that will help them. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance!
