For your information there will be a program at ALA on Subject- Based Classification. At present it will be at the Convention Center from 8:30 to 10 AM room W300. I will send out updates if anything changes. The agenda for the presentation as follows: Moderator: - Richard Covington, Backstage, Marketing Manager Speaker 1: - John Reese from Backstage will present the literature on subject based classification systems both pros and cons. Speaker 2: - Nicole Pasini, Deputy Director for San Mateo county Library. Nicole will talk about San Mateo's experience with migrating their multi branch library system. What did they need to do to make the move? Speaker 3: Jeremy Reeder, Deputy Director of Maricopa County Library District's . Jeremy was with Maricopa from the beginning when Perry Branch first implemented subject based classification. His topic as follows: "Still Deweyless After all these Years. Shelflogic turns 10!" What were the biggest takeaways? Is there anything we would do differently? Speaker 4: Logan Macdonald, Director of Products & Technology for Anythink Libraries led the move to Anythink's WordThink system. Logan will discuss how the move to subject-based classification improved the customer experience, made merchandizing easier, and streamlined workflows in collection development and tech services.
