I geeked out (quietly) in the library yesterday

when I visited this link:

Kyle Banerjee's Cataloging Calculator

You type in a name and it automatically calculates the cutter number in a variety of styles, including Library of Congress. Yipee!

I was trained as a cataloguer under Dr Lois Mai Chan, who literally has written the book on LC cataloguing and classification. So, you've got to figure I'd like this. Since I was surrounded by students and co-workers, I had to contain myself. But I so geeked out. :)

Thanks to Kyle Banerjee for making this available and to Stephen Pomes for the link.
