[LM_NET] Records clean up and creation

[Kathleen Dixon <katdixon58@GMAIL.COM>]

Thanks in advance for your advice!  I am a student nearly finished with my
MLS.  Through the course of my studies I have gained a particular interest
in records creation and management.  My knowledge of "cleaning up" records
as well as creating new MARC records is limited as of yet.  Ideally, I would
like to work as an independent contractor for individual K-12 libraries or
districts to work with records.  My questions are: Do you think there would
be an interest in K-12 libraries for records clean up and/or creation?  How
should I go about getting the experience I need to develop the skills
necessary to benefit K-12 libraries? Is there a specific product/technique I
should be familiar with?

Thank you,

Kathleen Dixon
