Shab, sheet music collection project, 7/31/2015

Today I cataloged 93 more cards of drawer 6 of the sheet music collection project.  The only new question that's come up is in reference to the cards for rows 1120-1122.  I think these cards are for the same collection of musical pieces so there's a main title in the title field and also a title for each movement(?), if that's what it's called.  I'm not sure if I cataloged these cards correctly in the title field so could you please check to see if it's correct.  I'm also uncertain about whether to put the main title (Americana) in the series field.  Normally, I don't do this unless the card says "Series" (and then lists the name of the series).  I didn't do it here because it's possible this isn't an actual series, more like a 3-part piece of music with each part cataloged on a separate card.  Jeanette, please me know your thoughts on this.  Otherwise everything was routine.  Thanks!

  1. Hi Shab,

    I think those rows are fine as is. I'm guessing these are 3 separate pieces of music/movements in the same suite, but it's hard to know without looking at the physical copies.

    Thanks!
