ferberize 

Really FRBR-ize, for Functional Requirements for Bibliographic Records. It is "a conceptual entity-relationship model developed by the International Federation of Library Associations and Institutions (IFLA)" in which relationships between the entities (in a catalog or bibliographic database) provide links to navigate through the hierarchy of relationships.
Creating separate records for print and digital formats now will allow us to ferberize our catalog later.

Back when I lived in upstate new york 

A meaningless, unimpressive, self-serving introduction. An indicator that the story about to be shared will be pointless and dumb.
Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.
