Antique Book Cataloguing

We are a specialist auction house based in the UK. We have a large collection of important scientific books that we need cataloguing. In order to catalogue a book we need someone who can do the following:

We will provide a title and description of the book and the valuation which we will send over to you.

You will need to write a bio on the author

Then, if needed, a description of why the book is important

For example, this is a good booksellers description of Hawkings first article on black holes:

you will need to use the Harvard referencing system

most of the books are scientific or medical and we already have some good information on many of them. However, you will need to rewrite it.

We also have a few SEO articles on various scientific instruments that will need rewriting

We will give you all of the main book databases so you can find similar listings

Who we are looking for:
You need to have English as a first language. You must be able to demonstrate some previous articles or essays written. You must be committed to the task and easy to contact and as we are working towards tight schedules to get sales out.

If all goes well this could become a very regular arrangement
