Re: [ARSCLIST] Registry of Digital Masters

[David Lewis <davlew@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I entered "2006" in the date field and got nothing. I entered "Goodman" -
the most frequently recorded of all jazz artists - into the "author" and
"keyname" fields and got nothing also.

This isn't an initiative, it's just a form. And one that doesn't work yet!

Greetings

I just learned of this OCLC initiative and thought it could have great
impact on future restoration projects, if it is used. I was not able to find
one single audio recording in the registry, but it seems like it is built to
catalogue them as well. At any rate, it seems like a step in the right
direction.

I am curious about what other list members think.
