Collective wisdom, At RISD, we have traditionally cataloged our masters theses. This of course requires considerable shelving space, something which is at a premium, and limits accessibility. However, as might be expected, many of these theses often take unusual and unique formats. We are in the initial stage of investigating digital options and I would love to hear back from those of you who catalog or whose institutions catalog masters theses ... any experiences, pitfalls, or words of advice you might offer would be extremely helpful and much appreciated. Thank you very much for your input.
