Computer Programs and Cataloging:: One Innovative Approach
Abstract
In August, 1987, the Cataloging Department at Duke University began a series of changes in workflow and procedures that increased our production while retaining traditional cataloging standards for authority control. Since January, 1988, we've processed almost all of our cataloging using the Cataloging Micro Enhancer software (CAT ME) in order to take advantage of computer programs designed to speed up cataloging processes. We accomplished this because of a fortunate combination of talent in the department, a series of experiments with the CAT ME, and a mandate to increase production. I offer this description of what we've done to encourage others to find a way to make computers serve their needs in a flexible and timely manner.
