Re: Photograph Cataloging?



Slightly off topic, but we have a request from another College for copies (reprints) of several photographs from our Archives. Are there standard procedures for marking reprints with their source, e.g. "from the Albion College Archives", etc. Should we have an ink stamp to mark them?

Sorry if this is such a basic question...we're between Archivists at the moment (if you want to apply, there's still time!).

Can't get my fingers off the keyboard this morning ;-)

MARC has never been the monolithic beast that Erin suggests above that it
was/is. While the AMC format was designed for creating cataloging records
for archival collections, there was also, pre format integration, a format
for visual materials that *was* designed to support item-level cataloging
of visual images. And then there's books ...
