How to maintain ‘CWAM’ updates

Important Notes:

· The updates listed below can be used only with the 2nd ed. (2004); they cannot be used with the 1st ed. (1998)

· Updates do not cumulate (unless otherwise noted); if you are printing your own updates, you must begin with #1 and continue the process for each subsequent update

· The ‘2006 Cumulation’ of the 2nd. ed published by ALA in 2007 (yellow and blue cover) includes Updates 1, 2, 3, and 4.

· Update pages are designed to be printed on both sides of a page; for best results, use a printer that supports duplex printing.

For your first update

· Click on the Update #1 link below.

· Download & print the pdf file (double-sided if possible).

· The 'Highlights' page lists changes in the update: file this page at the front of your manual after the title page.

· Replace old pages with updated pages, taking note of any significant changes, as highlighted by a vertical bar ( | ).

For succeeding updates

· Check this site on a regular basis.

· Turn to the latest highlights page in front of your manual (after the title page) and check the date of that update.

· If any updates have been posted since that date, follow the steps above to download and print each one.

· Make sure to file all new Highlights pages with those from previous updates.

To identify your edition of ‘CWAM’, use the ‘History’ link on the left.
