Hi Tweeters,

The Seattle Audubon Society has recently acquired a nice collection of
slides of photographs (many from D. Paulson), paintings and drawings of
birds of North America. This adds to the already large collection already
at SAS. The SAS education coordinator and I have been working on trying
to come up with an effective way to catalog the collection and create a
database. I thought we could use the four letter banding codes, rather
than arbitrary numbers, as a database 'look-up' label, and each slide
would be labeled with

(1) the four letter code
(2) common name
(3) slide number for that bird (e.g., 4th MODO slide)
(4) copy Letter (A = original, B = copy 1, etc.)
(5) photo credit
(6) SAS label

Additional information that could be included on the slide: scientific
name (but we're running out of space)

I have no experience with this sort of thing. Does anybody have any
comments or suggestions?
