I would be creating the electronic records myself from the original sources. The school's shelf list contains the resource room's collection which is mostly out-dated. Most of the books used are in the individual classrooms which are not included in the shelf list. The principal would like to eventually have an online catalog of the entire school's collection. I will eventually have to propose a software catalog for the records, but first I will need to create the MARC records.
Price is defintiely an issue.
