Today we were able to get into the workroom and spend most of the time putting pictures into the protective cases. We then moved on to putting all the transcription disks into folders. This gave us a chance to see what kind of recording we will be dealing with. As I understand it, each transcription disk contains a radio program that was recorded at an earlier date, then played by different radio stations at different times. They seem to be the almost like a re-run of a radio program. I really enjoy getting to go through all the materials and find out what types of materials make up the beginning of the museum.
Since it was a some what slow day, we were able to talk more about the cataloging process. I hope that we will be able to get through all the materials and make a metadata spread sheet for each collection and then take that information to make a finding aid.
