Anna Smislova was a faithful attendee of Cataloging Problem Discussion Group when she was able to attend ARLIS/NA conferences. She usually didn't get LC funding and therefore generally didn't claim to be speaking officially as a representative of the Library of Congress. Regardless, it was always wonderful to have her there to speak from her experience. She was old school, in the best ways.

Dear Colleagues,

 

Every art cataloger who mentored me had dog-eared copies of her Art Documentation articles, Art Subject Cataloging and Architecture Subject Cataloging.

 

Now Anna Smislova has passed away. Please see the Washington Post obituary:  https://tinyurl.com/y5wqpcvm
