I presented the talk, “Cataloging Digital Books & Photographs” to my library’s Acquisitions and Document Delivery Services department colleagues on 7 December, 2011.

Abstract

Jennifer will present an overview of two digital collections that are receiving non-MARC metadata treatment in the Cataloging Division: the Indiana Authors and Their Books text-encoding project and the Frank M. Hohenberger Photograph Collection metadata project. Additional emphasis will be placed on the tools being used to complete cataloging work and the reuse of data to expose collections.
