CATALOGUING MEMORABILIA: STRESS MANAGEMENT, MENTORING AND EXCELLENCE

CATALOGUING MEMORABILIA: STRESS MANAGEMENT,
MENTORING AND EXCELLENCE is a book for everyone who works with information or
knowledge. It is one that old and young can garner knowledge from, to help in
creating a stress-free workplace, work patterns and home life. It chronicles
experiences lived through in an academic library cataloguing workspace and
serves as memorabilia for a librarian @ 60 years. The aim is to demystify
cataloguing as being a librarianship “hardship area”, give hope to upcoming
library professionals and encourage them to create non-stressful future library
workrooms. Also to equip librarians with practical stress management
strategies; the importance of mental health awareness in technical library
services; offer actionable steps for libraries to foster resilience and improve
workflows, and discuss mentorship for librarians’ excellence in library work.
