PNC 2005

  12. Combination of text data and image data • Settlement of the limitation of text data → offering also image data • Image data • Precise information about its dimensions, colour, design, condition of the title, etc. → providing substantial information for users → combine image data together with text data • But not defined as all existent cataloguing codes PNC 2005

  14. Costs in the realization of this new form • Spreading of digital library • the photographic reproduction of early Japanese books → alternative texts of original → with deep care and facing high costs • This proposal • Not necessary to reproduce the whole text • Not need to devote many funds → test to verify the applicability of this proposal ‘Marega collection’at Universita’ Pontificia Salesiana in Rome PNC 2005

  15. Equipment for photograph at Marega collection Università Pontificia Salesiana , Biblioteca “Don Bosco” in Roma PNC 2005

  16. Advantages of this method • Distinction of the passages photographed • Take photographs of the parts needed immediately • Costs • Extremely reduced costs • Additional job of librarian • Not require a high photographic quality PNC 2005

  17. Conclusions • Realization of this new style • Not defined as cataloguing codes → but in MARC21, available to record • Online catalogue of Marega collection • Publish via web from next January • Recognition as standard rules • One of the regulations of the Union Catalogue • For best use of Early Japanese Books PNC 2005
