How do I record very old books?

Question

I have offered to help a friend record his very old bokk collection. There are about 2000 old books in his garage that have been boxed there for 4.5 years. He has never looked at them.

Obviously I will record the title, author, date of first publication, edition, condition of book and the publisher.

Is there anything else I should record?

Hope you can help.

Hmmm..... Honestly I have no idea. Why not ask your local library, I'm sure they'll be of some help.
