For researchers, curators, students, and museum visitors searching online collection catalogs, get help choosing keywords, date ranges, object types, and subject terms. Paste catalog entries to compare materials, makers, provenance, or catalog wording. Leave with a search plan, focused queries to try in the museum database, and a comparison of the records you share.

What it writes

  • Museum catalog search plan
  • Search terms and filter list
  • Side-by-side record comparison

How to use it

Include the museum or catalog name, your research question, likely dates and places, and any terms you already tried. Paste relevant catalog records when you want a comparison rather than a search plan.

What you bring

  • Research question or object topic
  • Catalog records copied into chat
  • Dates, places, or makers of interest
  • Access to the museum catalog you plan to search

A good fit for

  • Searching museum catalogs for objects linked to a person or event
  • Comparing records for similar ceramics, textiles, or paintings
  • Finding better catalog terms for an unfamiliar artifact

Ways to start

A few requests this Agent can handle.

I’m researching trade between Japan and Britain from 1850 to 1900. What terms and filters should I try in museum catalogs?

Compare these three catalog records for 19th-century blue-and-white porcelain and tell me which details distinguish the objects.

I’m looking for photographs of the 1911 Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire. Suggest search terms, date filters, and related subjects.
