Abstract
- This paper briefly outlines the process used to organize, classify, and make accessible a collection of architecture slides in the Architecture Resource Center at Andrews University in Michigan. The classification system includes the use of Art and Architecture Thesaurus subject headings, the ERIC (Educational Resources Information Center) concept of "identifiers," call numbers, color coded labels, and the R Base database management system. It is noted that, although a 386 level computer is recommended, this library launched its system on an XT level computer with a 30MB hard card. Attachments to the paper include a slide input form, instructions for cataloging and classifying slides and generating call numbers, and lists of building type abbreviations with an abbreviated subject and identifier list, geographical classifications, and abbreviations for periods and styles.
