Hello Listers,
We have recently started entering our collection records into the
PastPerfect database, and I've hit a problem. I know it's something that
others out there must have solved, whether you use PastPerfect or one of the
other software packages. We have many items that have left the collection
over the years, whether by deaccession, transfer, or whatever. I'm beginning
to feel as though I should enter the records for these items, both to
maintain the continuity of the database and to help my successors in the
department. I'd love to hear how you've handled this problem, and what the
pros and cons are.
Thanks in advance for your assistance!
