>The Visual Resources Association is actively soliciting comments on
>its new cataloguing resource, "Cataloguing Cultural Objects: A Guide
>to Describing Cultural Works and Their Images" (known as CCO).
>
>CCO was developed by representatives of the museum, library, archives
>and visual resources communities to promote good descriptive
>cataloging, shared documentation, and enhanced
>end-user access. It is now available in DRAFT form at
>http://www.vraweb.org/CCOweb/index.html.
>
>If you are responsible for descriptive cataloguing of cultural
>objects or images at your institution, we invite you to review the
>CCO Guide and tell us how we can make it more relevant and useful to
>your work. Please send your comments to mailto:[log in to unmask]
>
>Our "open comment" period will extend until July 1, 2004. In the
>Fall of 2004, the CCO project team will revise the Guide based upon
>community input received by the July 1 date.
>
>Please note that the CCO Guide has not been fully copyedited: we
>wanted to get these guidelines to the community so that cataloguing
>practitioners can start testing their applicability. The Guide will
>be copyedited prior to its Fall 2004 revision release.

>Thank you.
