Reseña de Booklist
This helpful resource for libraries that catalog artworks and visual representations of them deals with the practices of public, academic, museum, historical society, and other libraries. The first part includes extensive tables mapping the use of the MARC format for the types of materials cataloged by the institutions covered in the second and third parts. The second part reports nine projects for cataloging visual documents, chiefly slides. The third covers seven more projects that catalog not only such visual images as photographs, engineering drawings, and illustrated sheet music but also museum objects ("realia" in AACR2-speak), specifically the collection of ancient Near Eastern cylinder seals and their impressions in the Pierpont Morgan Library. A major asset for encouraging libraries to include such materials in their general catalogs.
Library Journal Review
During the more than 20 years the MARC format has been in use, it has been adapted to fit individual types of bibliographic formats and to integrate these into a unified system. Although this system works fairly well for the standard bibliographic item, cataloging art materials requires extensive modification of the system as well as expanded descriptive guidelines. This is the first publication to provide specific descriptive formats along with an extensive section delineating the experiences of a variety of newly developed art cataloging projects involving visual documents as well as original works. These include collection vs. item-level cataloging, adaptation of MARC tagging for slide collections, and the potentially vital linkage of scanned images and text records. There is a brief dictionary of the relevant MARC fields, including conversion of the standard descriptive fields to suit the needs of the media. An excellent bibliography reflecting the extensive nature of this work completes this major contribution to the literature. This practical source is the fine result of shared experience and one that should be on the shelves in the technical services of any institution involved with visual materials. Access for the user is what cataloging is all about, and this publication should be a great asset in achieving that.ÄPaula Frosch, Metropolitan Museum of Art Lib., New York (c) Copyright 2010.
