Ask HN: Do you remember Library Class?
Part of the rotation ( industrial arts, home ec, keyboarding (music))
Learning the card catalogue, Dewey decimal system, how to use microfiche, film strips, difference between non fiction and fiction
And asking why would anyone want to be a librarian
- 5bolts 9y agoi remember the class, but not a lot of its content. oddly enough we still use microfiche in my industry (banking, although its phasing out as images mature)
- jetti 9y agoNever had an actual class for this but in elementary school we would learn how to use the card catalog and the dewey decimal system and all that. We maybe went down a few times and that was it.
