How to Catalog Exhibition Publications Series: Session 1 Title, Statement of Responsibility, and Notes
Art exhibition publications pose unique cataloging challenges and often require more use of cataloger's judgment than other types of art documentation. They usually necessitate intervention in terms of transposing, omitting, and supplying data, and choice of access points can be complicated. Over three sessions, this webinar series will provide practical guidance to catalogers working with art exhibition publications by explaining issues and situations characteristic of this type of material. The four chapters of Cataloging Exhibition Publications: Best Practices, updated 2023-2025, will frame the program, and relevant standards and documentation will also be covered. Presentations by members of the Cataloging Advisory Committee will be supplemented by real-world examples and discussion.
This series of 3 virtual events is based on the in-person sold out workshop organized on Sunday May 3rd for ARLIS/NA yearly conference in Montreal.
