Guides for building a local music collection using the open-source MUSICat platform.
There are 4 publishing stages in MUSICat:
Jury: where submissions are collected and displayed, and where librarians and community curators work together to review submissions and curate their collection.
Invite: where librarians send invitations to artists whose work was selected for the collection.
Complete Submission: where artists come back into MUSICat to share content for their artist and album pages and sign a license with the library.
Review and Publish: where librarians review and edit artist and album page content, and publish artist and album pages.
