Collections of the German Museum of Books and Writing
In the German Museum of Books and Writing, we catalogue a wide variety of museum materials such as archival documents, legacies, graphics, incunabula, art books, paper samples, watermarks and printing machines. We use RDA for both published and non-published resources, and enhance the data records with cataloguing elements for museum collections. Moreover, we have been working with the Integrated Authority File (GND) for many years in order to link the approximately 1.2 million objects with Linked Open Data (LOD) and make them accessible for research purposes.
