I'm a new member of this group and not quite sure how it works yet. Do I send
a "SIGNOFF ARLIS-L" message each time I use this or when?
As a retired Sci/Tech Librarian, I am volunteering in a museum art library.
The library is small, but they are considering automating it, since they are
building a new museum. I have suggested the SIRSI system which was used at
my previous library, but would like some input from others as to a good
automation system. Also I have suggested they consider using the LC system
instead of Dewey. What are some other opinions on this? Also, how do other
art libraries handle exhibition catalogs? Are they integrated with the
regular books or kept on separate shelves? Are they cataloged with Dewey or
LC or special numbers? Any help would be appreciated.
