== Cataloguing sessions ==
You can do some cataloguing any time, but you can also organise to do it together :) We've had a few group sessions so far and it's been really productive and fun.
Upcoming:
* 6-8pm, 14th March 2018 at Frontyard
* 3-5pm 31st March 2018 at Frontyard
Past:
* [http://equivalentideas.com/journal/frontyard-at-volume-2017/ 13-15 October 2017 at Volume Book Fair]
* 27th September 2017
== Why? ==
== The process ==
We use a Google Form ([http://goo.gl/drZn35 http://goo.gl/drZn35]) to capture the information we want to note down about each ephemera work to be catalogued. For each work we collect:
* the number of the box it came out of (1-6);
The basic cataloguing process is:
The responses go to a spreadsheet you can work with, and you can also access a data feed of the entries via a public URL, if you open up the share settings (see my example of requesting and parsing that data feed).
