Hi Brenda,
Thank you for your prompt response, and thank you also to other kind
users who pointed me in the right direction! I was going to ask my
questions off-list, but it may be that other people have an interest in
this too.
At the National Gallery, London, we are planning to capture
bibliographic citations in TMS, mainly for publication to our website. I
surveyed CDWA standard and data entry rules in use by a few other TMS
users, among them the Getty's "Adding/Updating Bibliographic Citations"
January 23 2002.
Your standard appealed to me because it seems not to build full
bibliographic records in TMS, just citations for publication. This may
well suit us as we plan also to build full bibliographic records in a
new library system over the next few years, and probably to integrate it
with TMS eventually. Although we would like to achieve some granularity
in bibliographic data in TMS by using the Bibliography Module rather
than the Bibliography or Published Reference fields in Object Module, we
would prefer to enter minimal data and in particular to avoid swamping
TMS Constituents with authors and publishers.
May I check that I have understood your standard properly?
On "General Info" tab what do you enter in 'Title Proper' field - is it
simply author and title?
Who do you link under 'Constituents'- is it only the person who added
the citation, or do you also link authors and publishers etc?
Many thanks,
Gillian

Hi Gillian,

Please does anyone have a name and email address for the person who is
responsible for the data standards and data entry rules for TMS at the
Getty Museum?
I would like to ask a few questions by email (off listserv) regarding
the Getty's helpful "Adding_Bibliography.doc" , currently posted under
"User Shared Resources" on Gallery Systems' website.
Kind regards,
Gillian
