This is a question about auction catalogs and cataloging. How common is it
for museum libraries to actually catalog certain individual auction catalogs
which might be pertinent to the Museum's collection? Our library keeps
auction catalogs in order by auction house, and then by date. There is no
indexing by subject, etc.
So, for those librarians who also arrange their auction catalogs this way,
do you actually pull those certain catalogs out and catalog them, if you
feel it necessary? Or is there another recommended way?
Thanks for any help on this subject.
