Contract Cataloging
About Contract Cataloging
Since 1995, we have provided a variety of cataloging services; from eliminating backlogs, to
ongoing cataloging, to specialized language and format cataloging. In conjunction with the
University of Minnesota Libraries, the Contract Cataloging Program began as a cooperative
venture with the Minnesota State Law Library which had been providing cataloging services to
county law libraries since 1983 and continues to provide that service.

Minitex region in order to support quality cataloging and resource sharing.

Process
Materials are sent to Minitex, cataloged, and returned. A professional cataloger generates copy
and original records for your library. This is done for a per-piece fee. If you have questions
about the program, or would like a brochure and price list, contact us!
