Dokumentation im Online-Katalog – der Beitrag der Erschließung zur Restaurierung, Digitalisierung und Identifizierung

What is it about?

Abstract: In librarianship, metadata for items in collections are as necessary as they are well-known. But sometimes the fact is overlooked that data in union catalogues can also contribute to projects of restoration, digitization and identification of historical prints. Catalogue data may be suitable – as well as for searching and charging – also in documenting details of stocks affected by fire. For this matter long-established structures are available. The article advocates a rule-based, standardized cataloguing of facts like these within existing databases.
