Eventually, I have a fairly complete list of books. Today, I can take advantage of a software innovation called Z39.50 that eliminates logging into different catalogs for searches with duplicate titles. That feature is a window showing subject headings used to catalog the books written by my author. For example, Dr. Drucker has written five books on economic history from 1969 through 1989. Information society has been entered as a subject heading in the full record for one of these books.
Several questions regarding the search process come to mind.
The search strategy is saved in memory. Some are not very sophisticated. Please contact Gene Hayworth in the library if you want to be placed on a purchase list. One afternoon at the beginning of the term, Karla Nuzman, the library Circulation Manager, returned from lunch and stopped to hang her coat in the locker. After all, she had been the one to initiate this practical joke.
