[Heb-NACO] Cataloging Ketubot

[Heidi G Lerner]

Hi Gabriel,


We do not have experience at Stanford with any Ketubot collections. NLI put their collection online way back in the day (under the project leadership of Elhanan Adler; you might take a look at the online exhibition at Yale's Beinecke library which has digitized  their ketubah collection. The images are accopmanied by very full descriptive cataloging (example: https://brbl-dl.library.yale.edu/vufind/Record/3442522̲).

Also there are a number of records created by Yeshiva University for their ketubot  collection in OCLC which were created as "Type of record: Mixed materials.


Sorry that I cannot be of more help. I am sure that our colleagues who have worked with this genre will reach out to you. You might want to post this to Hasafran as well since I suspect that archivists and other not-cataloging library professionals who don't follow Heb-NACO might have been involved in ketubot cataloging projects.


best, Heidi


p.s. Do I see a paper for JL here by someone who has lot of experience in this?

Dear colleagues,

I am wondering what are your local practices when cataloging Ketubot.

Thank you,
-Gabriel
