It was time to roll up my sleeves and get my hands dirty! Classical music was playing softly in the background, which set the tone for the job ahead. I was asked to wear a pair of white cotton gloves and use non-abrasive sheets to clean the catalogs. They were filthy and some had some minor damage, so I was told to place them in mylar pockets to protect them. We were careful to keep them in order and re-house them in new cardboard boxes, labeling them according to month. There were about 5 boxes in all, and I'm sure it will be my job to begin cataloging them over the next few weeks.
I spent the rest of the day picking up where I left off by cataloging the remainder of the items that were left from the previous day, with the music playing of course!
