Cataloging Forum Topic: Cataloging Hebrew Manuscripts Tuesday, March 22, 2020 at 12noon ET
Most of us catalog monographs, which is fairly straightforward. Manuscripts is a different story with each manuscript being unique. In today's Cataloging Forum, Dr. Zsófi Buda will lead our session in how she catalogs manuscripts and the necessary tools she uses. Zsófi Buda graduated in Art History, Hebrew Studies, and Medieval Studies, and obtained her PhD in 2012 at the Central European University, Budapest. Her dissertation was entitled "Sacrifice and Redemption in the Hamburg Miscellany: The Illustrations of a Fifteenth-century Ashkenazi Manuscript." She created the catalogue descriptions of the Hebrew material for the Online Catalogue of Illuminated Manuscripts at the British Library. She also worked as manuscript cataloguer in the Polonsky Foundation Digitization Project at the Bodleian Library, and in the Hebrew Manuscripts Digitisation Project at the British Library. She was co-curator of the exhibition "Hebrew Manuscripts: Journeys of the Written Word" at the British Library (2020-2021).
