The Program for Cooperative Cataloging in the Time of COVID-19

摘要

The following narrative-the first in a series-is constructed from interviewswith several colleagues in the Program for Cooperative Cataloging(PCC)-Adam Schiff (University of Washington), Jennifer Baxmeyer(Princeton University), Judith Cannan and Paul Frank (Library ofCongress), and Naun Chew (Harvard University)-augmented by my ownlocal experience at National University in San Diego and by publicly availablebackground information. The goal is to convey a sense of how thepandemic emergency played out, both for individual PCC institutions andfor the program itself.
