What am I describing?[tasks are referred to as: cataloging,
describing, registering, managing, creating metadata …]
Need to understand:1. Catalog level2. Work vs. image 3. Related works

• Works may be – complex, consisting of multiple parts, – created in series
• First question: Are you dealing with a part of a work that belongs to a larger whole?
7
. Catalog Level
1. Item – an individual object or work, may be composed of multiple parts or components
8
. Catalog Level
2. Group
An archival group (or record group) is an aggregate of items that share a common provenance. – several thousand items (e.g., the entire
body of drawings, models, and written documents from an architect's office)
– a few items (e.g., a handful of surviving drawings from one architectural project).
9
2. Group (cont.)• a group often
contains many different types of objects
• cataloging focuses on the description of coherent, collective bodies of works
10
3. Volume
A volume comprises sheets of paper, vellum, papyrus, or another material that are bound together. – printed books, manuscripts,
sketchbooks, or albums
. Catalog Level
11
4. Collection
A collection comprises multiple items that are conceptually or physically arranged together for the purpose of cataloging or retrieval. – A collection differs from an archival
group because the items in a collection are bound informally for convenience and do not necessarily share a common provenance or otherwise meet the criteria for an archival group.
. Catalog Level
12
5. Series
A series comprises a number of works that were created in temporal succession by the same artist or studio and intended by the creator(s) to be seen together or in succession as a cycle of works.
. Catalog Level

13
6. Set
A set is an assembly of items that the creator intended to be together (e.g., a tea set, a desk set, a pair of terrestrial and celestial globes). – A set differs from a collection in that it is typically
smaller and was intended by the creator to be grouped together.
. Catalog Level
the object comprises bowl, lid, and stand
14
7. Component
A component is a part of a larger item. – A component differs from an item in that the item
can stand alone as an independent work but the component typically cannot or does not stand alone (e.g., a panel of a polyptych, an architectural component).
. Catalog Level
15
Levels of cataloging in different Levels of cataloging in different disciplinesdisciplines
• Most common levels:– groups, subgroups, volumes, and single items
• Archives:– group level – intellectual or physical groups
• Museums:– item level -- assigning accession numbers and
other catalog information to every individual object in their collections.
• Libraries:– volume level -- typically do not catalog individual
prints or illustrations in the pages of a volume.
16
A work – is a distinct intellectual or artistic creation
limited primarily to objects and structures made by humans
– including • built works • visual art works • cultural artifacts• … …
A work is a physical entity that exists, has existed at some time in the past, or that could exist in the future.
2. Work vs. Image2. Work vs. Image
17
2. Work vs. Image
An image – is a visual representation of a work. – It typically exists in
• Photomechanical format • Photographic format• digital format
– In a typical visual resources collection, an image is a slide, photograph, or digital file.
– Images do not include three-dimensional physical models, drawings, paintings, or sculptures, which are works in their own right.
18
• Data set describing a chair that was documented by a photograph. The photograph was later copied to a slide format and scanned to create a digital image.
• Frederick C. Robie House dining chair • Designer: Wright, Frank L. (1867-1959)
• See VRA Example 3. http://www.vraweb.org/resources/datastandards/vracore3/examples.html

Relationships between Work and Relationships between Work and Image Records Image Records
• In a relational database structure– a record for the image would be linked to a
record for the work
25
one work – many images
– a work may be linked to multiple images (e.g., when there is more than one image of the work)
StonehengeStonehenge
26
–an image may be linked to multiple works (e.g., when more than one work appears in the same image)
one image – depicts multiple works
27
3. Related works3. Related works
• Related Works are those having an important conceptual relationship with each other
• Records for Related Works are linked to each other in the database.
• An intrinsic relationship is essential and must be recorded to enable effective searches.
• An extrinsic relationship is not essential; although recording it may be informative, the cataloger need not identify the extrinsic relationship during the cataloging process.
28
Intrinsic relationshipIntrinsic relationship-- a direct relationship between two works
• Whole-Part Relationships• Group and Collection Relationships• Series Relationships• Components and Architectural Works
29
Extrinsic RelationshipsExtrinsic Relationships -- two or more works have a relationship that is informative, but not essential
The described work and the referenced work can stand independently.
• = a see also reference in a bibliographic record • temporal association: e.g., with works done after the
original work, such as works that clearly reference other works while not necessarily being copies of them.
• spatial association: e.g., two or more works intended to be seen together.
