Nomenclature 3.0
Nomenclature 3.0 is a hierarchically organized list of terms used for the cataloging of museum objects. It is the latest version of the museum collections classification system developed by Robert Chenhall in the 1970s and replaces the second edition, Revised Nomenclature, which was first published in 1988. It is integrated into the latest version of PastPerfect. To order a copy from AltaMira Press, go to http://www.altamirapress.com.
AASLH Launches Nomenclature 3.0 Online Community
http://aaslhcommunity.org/nomenclature
Nomenclature 3.0 is a critical tool for museum professionals and we developed this online community to promote and assist with the use of the third edition of Nomenclature. The community is moderated by an ongoing Nomenclature Committee serving under the aegis of AASLH. Paul Bourcier, co-editor of Nomenclature 3.0, is the committee chair. Use this site to learn about Nomenclature 3.0, to share news and ask advice, and to submit your own proposals for additions and changes for future editions.
