Special Cataloging Services from the Cataloging Maintenance Center

Since 2001, Cataloging Maintenance Center (CMC) Staff at Illinois Heartland Library Service (IHLS) staff have been cataloging local authors, local history, local genealogy, special collections, and government documents for any library in good standing in Illinois. Their special collections cataloging services include world language materials, CDs, kits, 3D objects, realia, newspapers, or any items that your library considers special collection material.

Recently, many of you have expressed the need for specialty cataloging services for your collection(s) and have reached out to CARLI to help find solutions. CARLI is now working with the CMC to link their services to your library’s cataloging needs. 

Please join staff from the CMC for a presentation to CARLI Member Libraries about this service.

If you have specific collections that need to be cataloged or you have questions please share them on the registration form. 

Connection information will be shared with registrants on May 21.
