If I understand it, the Rigler-Deutsch Index is just holdings of 6 large
repositories. this would be useful if one of them joined (wouldn't that
be great?).
We are looking of information about the disks, like dates, reviews, and
the like. I have written code that links it to dahr,
78discography.com, discogs, 45worlds, and scans of cashbox magazine.
This gets dates for about 2/3 of the 78s, then there are many volunteers
that are doing internet research to find more-- it is fun and if anyone
would like to help...
the arsc discography project will likely help.
