Subjects range from the basic to the complex \u2014 from cataloging fundamentals to the nuances of metadata across lending item types.<\/p>\n\n\n\n All courses are asynchronous, so students may study each module\u2019s materials as their schedules allow, as long as they complete the assignments and quizzes by the end of each week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Courses are free to all library workers in Illinois thanks to a grant awarded by the Illinois State Library, a Department of the Office of the Secretary of State.<\/p>\n\n\n\n More information on the Cataloging Maintenance Center is available here<\/a>.
