I do also include a provenance and information regarding where the originals are kept. I just keep trying to include information that will help when I need to find something or answer a question months or years down the road.<br /><br />I'm planning on digging into a few more boxes in the next few weeks. I will write about my experiences so stay tuned...Michelle Goodrumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03427355155193196767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8083165316546520942.post-24951742454306907282010-03-30T18:35:04.504-07:002010-03-30T18:35:04.504-07:00Michelle,

In the notebook sections are you just listing what's been inventoried/scanned? As I get to the end of my piles of boxes I can see the (next) need to have lists or something to let me know what I have besides my memory ("I know I have that somewhere"!).Pathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00124787534853812231noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8083165316546520942.post-43683738214366406082010-03-29T17:59:04.942-07:002010-03-29T17:59:04.942-07:00Pat, I'm glad these posts have been helpful to...Pat, I'm glad these posts have been helpful to you!<br /><br />I've been trying to keep my "inventory notebook" fairly simple (if that's possible :) I have a section for each item or subject or whatever that I have inventoried. So I will have a section for Mom's family photo album, I have another one for the first box of papers of my great grandfather's, another one for family slides, a section for pictures my cousin has scanned and sent me. You get the idea.<br /><br />It's probably not the best set up for doing a fast search for an item though. But I figure it's better than nothing.<br /><br />I've also used Clooz to catalog photos that I have scanned. You might look into that too.<br /><br />Really it's been kind of an evolving method....Michelle Goodrumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03427355155193196767noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8083165316546520942.post-16368880609110348112010-03-29T13:57:36.873-07:002010-03-29T13:57:36.873-07:00Thanks for you great ideas!

How do you do your notebook about what's been inventoried? I'm having trouble keeping track of what photos I've scanned but don't want to add a lot of work to the scanning work...<br />Thanks again!Pathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00124787534853812231noreply@blogger.com
