USAIN Management Team Meeting Minutes
01 November 2000
11:00am
Smathers Library Conference Room
Present:
Cathy Mook, Principal Investigator
Daniel Cromwell
Nelda Schwartz
Susan Constantineau
Victoria Naipavel
October Statistics--Filming
42 reels of film were produced in October, which equaled approximately
40 volumes. Cathy will mention in her final report that volume count
is not a good measure of the amount filmed, and that image count would probably
be a better measure of productivity. Over 1,140 volumes have been filmed
by Preservation staff, and 329 volumes have been filmed by the independent
filming agent, for a grand total of 1,476. This leaves a remaining 273
volumes that must be filmed in the months of November and December to complete
the requirements of the grant.
October Statistics--Cataloguing
Susan has approximately 12 monographs that will definitely be catalogued by
the end of the year. Daniel reported that most of the monographs and
serials that are currently upstairs already have some level of cataloguing work
done. The records are just not up to Conser and AACR2 standards, and will
need to be upgraded.
Other Topics of Discussion
Cathy forgot to add the September Cataloguing statistics to the website; she
will do so ASAP. Daniel took all of the Lake Alfred donations back.
Cathy has not seen any budget reports lately, but will make a report at the next
meeting after receiving one. Regarding, ILL of materials for grants, Cathy
will mention in her final report that ILL is rather unsuccessful, given the
amount of time needed to catalogue, the difficulty arranging a filming schedule
around materials that are apt to show up at any time, and the short loan period
of most ILL materials.
Respectfully
Submitted,
Victoria Naipavel
