Today I "photoshopped" the images which I scanned on Monday and uploaded them onto the library server. Since the computer which was connected to the book scanner was being used, I searched through the sales records for any more which matched with the photo files and scanned the sales records on the flatbed scanner. While I was waiting for the book scanner to become available to scan the photos, Dr. Larkin asked me to find certain items owned by Phoebe Hearst. This was a request from the Phoebe A. Hearst Museum of Anthropology in Berkeley, California. Since there was nothing in the Hearst online database, I spent the next few hours flipping through the sales records once again! It will be so much easier once these are recorded digitally!
P.S. I never found the items.
Since the book scanner was available at this time, I finished scanning the photos and edited them in Photoshop and uploaded them onto the server so my work wouldn't be lost.
