TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
I have finally self-published my college hunting guide, Spying On The
College Of Your Choice. It is listed at B&N.com and VirtualBookworm.com,
and should be up on Amazon shortly.
The listing at B&N is very brief, but they have a way for authors to
provide additional information. Part of what I am supposed to provide is
something called BISAC codes for both the audience and subject. A web
search on BISAC brings me to the Book Industry Study Group, which is
willing to sell me a book that lists the BISAC codes. I'd really rather
not shell out money for a one-shot effort. Does anyone already have this
book, and can you tell me the BISAC codes that correspond to the following?
BISAC Audience: High School Students and Their Parents, Counselors, and
Teachers
BISAC Subject: College Hunting and College Preparation
(The descriptive text is mine, and I have no idea if it matches the words
used by BISAC, but if you can provide the closest possible match, that
would help.)
Incidentally, if you have kids heading to college within the next few
years, you can take a peek at www.SpyingOnTheCollegeOfYourChoice.com to
learn more about the book.
