Finding Harmony: Social Tags And Name Authority Records In The Popular Music Domain, Kabel Nathan Stanwicks, Hemalata Iyer
University Libraries Faculty Scholarship
Libraries and cultural institutions use cataloging and metadata standards to describe works and those responsible for creating them. These standards are used to create name authority records (NAR) to collocate creators’ works under single, authorized versions of their names. NARs employ controlled vocabulary to describe individuals and disambiguate names. NAR production is costly; therefore, few are updated when standards are revised, and controlled vocabularies are slow to adapt to a rapidly changing information landscape. Artificial intelligence provides opportunities to leverage social tagging to update and enhance NARs, while simultaneously improving user search and discovery. Our research demonstrates that social tags …
Composers' Collected Works: A Case Study In Remote Work Compatible Catalog Maintenance, David Floyd
Composers' Collected Works: A Case Study In Remote Work Compatible Catalog Maintenance, David Floyd
Library Scholarship
Approximately 15% of Binghamton University Libraries' 28,000 musical scores are collections of scores comprising a composer's complete works. Ideally, these large, multipart, non-circulating collections are cataloged consistently with either comprehensive records for each set, or individual records for each score within the set. Our catalog is inconsistent in this approach and requires remediation. The resulting workflow maximizes flexibility in who participates, where, and when, by siloing the portion of the work requiring data processing and advanced music cataloging skills. This poster will show both the workflow for standardizing composers' collected works sets, and how the project is designed for remote …

Noobs Ftw!: A Discussion Of Challenges & Resources For New Music Catalogers, Autumn Faulkner
ALA Presentations
Autumn Faulkner presented a practical look at how a new music cataloger can strategize the navigation of many cataloging standards, and how to succeed in facing the challenges imposed by learning both basic cataloging as well as specialized music cataloging in the same breath.
