Abstract/Contents

Abstract: The first phase of cataloging piano rolls for the Player Piano Project at the Stanford Archive of Recorded Sound focused on the Denis Condon Collection of Reproducing Pianos and Rolls. From that collection, the first rolls to be cataloged were for the Welte-Mignon reproducing piano. These rolls represent some of the oldest and most unique rolls in the collection. They span from 1905 to 1932. These guidelines provide foundation for cataloging piano rolls with RDA and MARC 21. They could easily be modified and expanded to work with other player piano systems.
