We use a file folder system.  We have a file for each accession record
that includes a print out of the accession record from PastPerfect,
copies of our purchasing paperwork (requisition, check, etc.) and any
miscellaneous paperwork that comes associated with an item.  The files
are then stored in a schwab fireproof cabinet.

Subject: [MUSEUM-L] Written Museum records

 

Hi

 

I was wondering what folks are using as their primary medium for written
catalogue information and why. The options that I can think of are:

Bound notebooks

Catalogue Cards

Loose leaf-binders

 

I am contemplating changing our present system, but I was hoping for
some feedback before rushing madly into what would be a huge project.

 

Many thanks for any feed back

Mark
