CR 04-26-1126 - Libraries Cataloguing and Physical Processing

Description: CR 04-26-1126 is a formal RFP in which McMaster University invites qualified proponents to supply cataloguing and physical processing services for McMaster University Libraries. The work is intended to make physical collections discoverable and available, expand internal capacity, cover languages or formats where local expertise is limited, and address the Libraries' ongoing backlog. It also includes retrospective cataloguing and legacy-metadata enhancement; the notice says vendor-supplied services historically processed 1,500–2,000 physical items annually, with volume varying by cost.
