Some Tips on Learning Card Catalog Cards:
Locate the authors name, Last name 1st this will giveyou a reference point to compare all the information Remember that the information is always written in thesame order. Any differences are minor because ofdifferent publishers.
Look for ALL CAPITAL LETTER has to be a SubjectCard
If its NOT the Title or in ALL CAPITAL LETTERS,then it probably is a Series Card
If its a name that is NOT the authors, it probably isthe Illustrators card; compare it to the Illustratorsname entry if its NOT the same, Maybe you have aMain Character Card
