Part Three: Sample Catalogue Entries


Introduction

Several sample entries are shown on the following pages. Each of the three levels of cataloguing is represented by one or more entries: groups, a volume (a sketchbook), and items. These samples range from core to full entries in order to illustrate some possibilities of the extent to which a group or item may be catalogued. Each sample entry is shown in two formats. The first is in a display format, one of many that can be generated from the second format, the basic catalogue record.

Hierarchically related information is represented by indentation, each successive level set off below the broader one, e.g.,


    England
      London
        Chelsea


Information that is not hierarchical but that consists of repeating occurrences is represented without indentations, e.g., for a drawing with more than one Medium:


    pen
    pencil
    chalk
