Jillian Hiscock, the RHSV Collections Manager, started these free cataloguing clinics during the early days of COVID and they suit Zoom very well. The clinics run for an hour from 11am – 12noon on the 4th Thursday of each month. It is a relaxed gathering of people who are finding their way through the intricacies of cataloguing material in historical collections which, as we all know, fall between a library and a museum with sometimes a bit of art gallery thrown in.  With our membership scattered across Australia please remember that this is Melbourne time – AEDT in summer and AEST in winter.

Jillian always prepares some material on some specific queries but questions are encouraged and, remember, a problem shared is a problem halved. The clinics are conversational in format rather than a seminar. If you are new to cataloguing, or an old hand, you will find plenty to interest you in these sessions. Jillian often has material which is emailed out to attendees after the clinic.

The remaining clinics in 2022 will be held (via Zoom) on:

•         Aug 25, 2022 11:00 AM (Helen Stitt will be talking about the naming of scanned images for cataloguing and Jillian will be talking about book cataloguing)
•         Sep 22, 2022 11:00 AM
•         Oct 27, 2022 11:00 AM
•         Nov 24, 2022 11:00 AM
