Re: [ARSCLIST] cataloging sound recordings



I just looked at it.  I'm not sure how it addresses composer/title issues,
much less those of dubs.  You say there is more.  I'd be glad to look at the
whole set, not clear from the examples.

It seems to handle performers well.

Check out the cataloging template available from Independent Media Art
Preservation. It might save some time, as
a starting point.
http://www.imappreserve.org/cat_proj/index.html

The sample record does not show all of the fields, but if you download the
tutorial, the complete list of fields may
be accessible.

We use a local version of it at the Bobst Library at NYU, but with added
fields for physical description such as stock
brand, tape capacity, and base type (for cassettes and 1/4" reels). The
idea for many of the added fields came from
Hannah Frost's talk on surveying audio collections.
