At first glance, this seems like it ought to be tagged “Humor“, but take a few minutes to check this against your own catalog, and you won’t be laughing at all:
Typo of the Day has a mission… they will feature a common library catalog typographical error each day with the purpose being that we all test our catalogs and fix the entries containing the errors.
Today is the first day, and the typo is “Adminstration”. I checked our catalog, and it appears in three records (which are now fixed). If this turns out to be an average (and who knows?), in one year we could clean up 1,000 errors in our database.
So check your database… search for “Adminstration” and see what you find. Fix the errors. Make it part of your daily routine. We will all have cleaner catalogs for the effort.
