although it was really interesting to see it coming from the perspective of "we are musicologists and now we need to learn how to use computers and make our own databases of the data that we deal with in order to understand it better"

which is really different to "we build databases, and we want people to come and add stuff to our DB"

a guy from the library of congress gave a talk on how they improved their list of instruments (it was _terrible_ previously)

they (like us in some places) require an example of the instrument being used in the catalog before adding it

however unlike us, it takes something like 3 committees and 6 months to get added 🤣
