We recently udated our Cataloguing Manual using CCO as a loose
guideline. Because we are a contemporary museum, we run across objects
that defy standardization but CCO and various other sources help with
general practices.
We would be very interested in participating in a discussion about
that....please count us in!

Developed by the museum's librarians, the Albright-Knox Art Gallery has
drafted an art cataloguing manual in compliance with CCO.  Although we
are a user of MIMSY XG, we would be willing and eager to participate in
any larger conversations on the topic.

Jennie,

I have done that for the YCBA and I am about to send our cataloguing
manual to Danielle.  I did run into issues implementing CCO in TMS and a
CI session sounds great to talk about our various solutions to these
issues.

The Met is also about to embark on a mammoth standardization project. We
will be using CCO as a guide. I would love to hear how others are
translating the CCO standards to TMS fields. Has anyone done this?

It might be good to have a CCO session at the next Collective
Imagination conference in April.  The Met will be hosting.

Ditto for us - the Gallery would also be interested in this topic.

All the best,

Hi Emily,

Your message is timely, as I've recently begun reviewing our TMS style
guide documents and using CCO as a reference. For each area of
cataloging I am defining crosswalks between TMS, CCO, and other schemas,
and documenting where our current practice differs from CCO.  I'd love
to be a part of discussion in this area, so count me in!

Best,

Brenda

Greetings,



I would love to hear from institutions who have customized TMS to
conform to CCO standards. There seems to be a lot of information on the
Internet about standard, but very little about the actual implementation
of the standard in a real live museum. Please contact me even if you are
only interested in this topic, maybe we can form some kind of working
group.



Thank you,
