Secrets of a Lapsed Librarian: How I Use Library Resources as a Bookseller
Bookseller Patrick Olson delivered a talk on this topic for the BSA in 2023. This document is the presentation PowerPoint turned into a PDF. It includes resources that antiquarian booksellers may find useful.
From the creator: "Wondering how VIAF, LCSH subdivisions, or even Bib Standards’ SCF can lend a hand in your work? If you weren’t before, you certainly are now! Current bookseller and former librarian Patrick Olson introduces a variety of library resources that can benefit booksellers and the bibliographically curious, with a special focus on some of the more obscure resources used primarily by librarians."
