[spcollig] Special Collections

[Steve Kerber]

At SIUE Lovejoy Library, catalog records exist for those manuscript collections previously 
submitted to Archive Finder.  Author, title, subject access is provided in the catalog record 
but the catalog cannot be used efficiently to discover all our collections.  In addition, not all 
collections have catalog records due to historical lack of tech services support.  We plan to 
implement ARCHON in the next two years to enhance access to our archival and manuscript 
holdings.

All books in the Regional, SIUE Author, SIUE University Publications, Rare, and Sledge 
Black Focus book collections have been catalogued.
