24. Some Tips on Learning Card Catalog Cards: Locate the authors name, Last name 1 st – this will give you a reference point to compare all the information – Remember that the information is always written in the same order. Any differences are minor because of different publishers. Look for ALL CAPITAL LETTER – has to be a Subject Card 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 is the Illustrators card; compare it to the Illustrators name entry – if its NOT the same, Maybe you have a Main Character Card
