This is really heartening, and I appreciate both your comments!

I have a particular interest in ephemera, and through that interest I started pondering this very issue (cataloging and buying descriptions and people who end up working on cataloging when they hate it etc). it would be transformative for collection policies and a whole range of "mission and budget" issues, as you suggest. I think I am falling for cataloging all over again...with this in mind as a new frame of reference! WOW! i loved this post, was tweeted here by ALAconnect…and bo-oy! am i happy.
