Cataloguing of photos (1,936 963 photos)-
Prepping the photos for the scanning process was a part of their cataloguing process. They all have an IRIS number. Stephanie has been working 20 hours a week gathering terminology in IRIS in the subject file when she identifies types of buildings/accents/structures in the photographs. The titles that are on them will be used as titles in the item even though they are not unique, ex. Street name, date, time of day etc. The photos also have a category like signs or Boston at night (about 20 categories) these will be subject heading. Jolene doesn't have an estimation of how long this will take but will check in with Liz P. and Stephanie on their progress to date.
