      Documenting no exhibition catalogue exists

      Documenting the absence of exhibition catalogues helps ensure your catalogue is accurate and clearly presented.

      When documenting exhibitions for your catalogue raisonné, you may come across cases where no exhibition catalogue was published. In such instances, it's important to record that no catalogue exists. This makes it clear that no resources have been overlooked and that the research for this entry is complete. This tutorial shows you how to document the absence of an exhibition catalogue in your entry.

      1. Open the exhibition entry you want to edit.

      Open the exhibition entry you want to edit.

      2. Click the "No catalogue" toggle, located directly below the field for adding a catalogue.

      The toggle documents that no catalogue was published for the exhibition. It is not available, if a publication entry has already been linked to the exhibition.

      Click the "No catalogue" toggle, located directly below the field for adding a catalogue.

      3. Once it is documented that no catalogue was published, the option to add a catalogue is deactivated.

      The field that previously displayed the Add Catalogue button now shows a strikethrough catalogue icon. Should new research become available and a catalogue be found, you can deactivate the toggle to re-enable the option and add the catalogue.

      Once it is documented that no catalogue was published, the option to add a catalogue is deactivated.
