Shab, sheet music collection project, 10/24/2014

Today I cataloged 50 more cards of drawer 5 of the sheet music collection project.  No particular issues except one piece of music does need to be checked against the hard copy upstairs because I'm pretty certain the publisher's name has a typo on the card.  The other issue I had which is relatively minor is I'm not sure about some of the titles on the music composed by Percy Aldridge Grainger.  They're all pieces of movements so there seemed to be info in the title fields which I'm not entirely sure I've cataloged correctly; Jeanette, please let me know your feedback on these whenever you have a chance.  Thanks!

Shab, sheet music collection project, 10/17/2014

Today I cataloged 64 more cards of drawer 5 of the sheet music collection project.  There were a batch of foreign language compound music piece cards that proved to be more challenging than usual with new information I'm not sure belongs on the spreadsheet or if so, where.  Jeanette, like we discussed, I've highlighted anything I'm not certain about in red on the spreadsheet for you to see so it should be several assorted fields and rows after row 705.  Thanks for your feedback today.

Today I cataloged 70 more cards of drawer 5 of the sheet music collection project.  No real issues to report except an odd note on one of the cards (this row is highlighted in red on the spreadsheet, row 667).  The card said "(for full information see author card)".  I think this is some kind of cross reference card but I'm not sure what (if anything) I'm supposed to do with it regarding the spreadsheet.  Jeanette, please let me know if you have any thoughts on this.  Thanks!

Shab, sheet music collection project, 9/26/2014

Today I cataloged 50 cards of drawer 5 of the sheet music collection project.  The only question I have in particular is about whether some of the description in the title field (like a title is the theme of something, etc.) should be in the title or note field.  For now I'm leaving it in the title field merely because a lot of music from television and movies doesn't have specific titles but is merely known as the "love theme" or theme of tv show/movie x.  Please let me know if there's any feedback for this.  Thanks!

Shab, sheet music collection project, 9/19/2014

Today I cataloged 54 more cards of drawer 5 of the sheet music collection.  Jeanette, there were a couple of cards which had odd words all over them (I've highlighted them in yellow) if you'd like to check them over - rows 530 (foreign language card which I'm uncertain about) and 546 which had a peculiar note written on the card I had no idea what to make of.  Otherwise everything was routine.

Shab, sheet music collection project, 09/05/2014

Today I managed to catalog 48 more cards of drawer 5 of the sheet music collection project.  Other than some questionable foreign language cards, I don't think I had any particular new issues.  I am still wondering if notes like "all rights reserved to ___ and ___" should be in the publisher field (where I've been putting it) or the note field.  However, so far I have not received any feedback about it so I'm assuming I'm doing it correctly.  Otherwise, most everything was routine.
