Officially, Ciprian Ene is continuing the work full steam ahead, while the rest of us continue to help adding input, advising with cataloging and classification matters, and of course, the vital task of added entries into the database...
Ciprian and Mindy provide an added perspective on the continuing challenge to work with the Carnegie Museum staff (the incomparable Rachel Delphia and Amanda Seadler, primarily) to effectively execute their vision for a complete, workable and searchable Decorative Arts Library catalog.
Meeting and discussing these matters, helping to make decisions regarding what things work for a small research and reference book collection, continuing to build the database and encountering those areas of uncertainty with an eye for collectively figuring out potential problems - these are the efforts that we've been putting into the project eagerly and willingly.
It is moving along steadily, and, at this point, the ability to envision its completion is a palpable reality. As contributors to the cataloging project itself, Carnegie cataloging welcomes Mindy and Ciprian to the discussion, that they may contribute to this online discussion regarding the project and cataloging in general.
