| The following pages provide a look inside the history of libraries and librarianship. Librarians have always worked hard to adapt to the constantly changing technology that is meant to make libraries more efficient. The changes vary from the methods used to catalog items to the tools used to catalog them. Within these pages can be seen the transition, innovation, and the differences from one method or tool to the next. This virtual museum is for the new generation of librarians who may not be familiar with the tools and methods used before technology and the digitization of library catalogs stepped in. It is also for those experienced librarians who have been in the profession for many years; perhaps the museum will bring back a bit of nostalgia. As you clean out your closets, please keep us in mind! We would LOVE to have any unwanted cataloging and acquisitions items. Either send a digital picture or the actual item! Drop us an email! We'd love to place your artifacts in our virtual museum! |
| The Virtual Museum of Cataloging and Acquisitions Artifacts |
| Artifacts or pictures of artifacts have been donated by many kind librarians and libraries. Without them, there would be no Virtual Museum of Cataloging and Acquisitions Artifacts. |
