I always create one called "The Hoosier Cinderella" (so they have to find an authority record for Cinderella and then figure out how to incorporate Indiana in the subject headings) written by me (what to do with my name) and illustrated by another faculty member whose name can be shortened (Patricia McWilliams who supposedly illustrates children's books under Patty McWilliams and adult books under Artiste -- I supply that information). They have to create a bib record, find the uniform title for Cinderella, create name authority records for me (such a lot can be done with my name -- La Donna with and without the space, maiden name ...). Of course I don't tell them they have to do all of that -- just that they need a bib record, and if they can't find a name authority they have to create one. Stir as needed!!
