Inclusive Description in the Glasgow School of Art Library’s Published Catalog

Abstract

This case study provides an overview of two guidance packs that the author created for the GSA Library, the first of which concerns advisory notices and the second of which concerns subject indexing and classifications. In an effort to share good praxis, this article includes real examples of item-level advisory notice text as well as a set of flowcharts that were designed to help GSA Library staff with the tasks of inclusive description.
