Those who were in New Orleans for the 2017 ARLIS/NA conference in New Orleans earlier this year may remember Tamara Fultz’ fascinating presentation at the last Cataloging Section meeting. Titled “Beyond the Backlog: How the Thomas J. Watson Library Made Their Backlog Disappear”, this PowerPoint presentation (click the link below to download!) is a valuable summary for any cataloger or librarian looking for solutions to a seemingly endless backlog.
Tamara Fultz is the Associate Museum Librarian, Principal Cataloger, at the Thomas J. Watson Library at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
