What name do we look up? Manystudents understand the use of the white pages, and that we use the last namealphabetically. Now ask how they might find the name of an Italian restaurant ifthey didn’t know its name. There will be students who understand the yellowpages, but bring all students to realize that we group like businesses together.Help the student to understand that the yellow pages and white pages are twodifferent ways to find the same information. Illicit from them what they want toknow in their search of the phone book (a phone number).
Now you can tie this into the library catalog. The online library catalog gives usseveral ways to get to the same information--to find a book. We can find it by theTITLE, the AUTHOR or the SUBJECT (we’ll cover keyword later). What we wantto end up with is the location of the book. In the computer, it is called a “callnumber.” Our phone book can help us remember that--Call Number. The CallNumber is the same as the spine label on the book. When we match the two, wecan find the book on the shelf.Let the students know that in the next few weeks we will be learning some simplerules to help us know when to use a title, author or subject search. We will notspend a lot of time on the program, because it is pretty easy to understand (Thisbecomes more so as students have more and more access to computers.) Ouremphasis is in making sure that the students are being successful in picking theirsearches.During check out, invite students to explore the online library program, but onlyAFTER they have checked out their books. They are not to use the online librarycatalog to find books until they have passed our unit. That way I know they won’tbe learning bad habits. I am aware that there are some students who alreadyknow how to do this, but I want to make sure they understand each search fully.Story: Caldecott if time.Lesson 17: Title SearchPreparation: Overhead of the online library catalog menu.Lesson: We will learn some simple rules for each of our search strategies. Wewill begin with TITLE. You use title when you know exactly the name of the bookyou are looking for, and you are searching for one thing only. The computer willbe looking for the books in alphabetical order, so it is very important that youknow the first word of the title and how to spell it (yes, spelling counts!)So the first rule for Title is FIRST WORD. You must know that and type itcorrectly. Now we have 3 exceptions to that rule. These are three little wordscalled articles that come for nouns. Those words are A, AN and THE. We usethese little words a lot and there are many book titles that begin with them. If wehad them as the first word, there would be so many titles to look at that we wouldhave to use the second word to find our title. So to save us time, the computerdoes not use those three words and skips to the second word. You don’t evenhave to type in those three words when they are the first word. But if you do typeit in, remember, the computer will skip to the second word.So if the first word is A, AN or THE, then we go to the second word. To help you
