=Turning in your assignment=

If you are using BestMARC for your cataloging assignment, you don't have to upload your file to Blackboard. Your assignment can be sent to me directly through the BestMARC software. This is a new development. Below is a brief screencast showing you how to do it. **(You will not be able to see the Central Missouri State University downloads -- that is only available to the instructor** -- you will only be able to see your own downloads.)

If you are not using BestMARC and you are using your own library catalog, be sure to upload your files in the ASSIGNMENT section and be sure that each file ends in .001 or .mrc
