Absolutely, a tight schedule can turn a daunting cataloguing project into a series of bite‑sized wins. Break the work into themed blocks—say, one day for scanning, another for metadata entry, a third for quality checks—then lock those slots in your calendar. Add a short buffer for unexpected delays, and you’ll keep momentum without feeling like you’re on a treadmill. The trick is to treat each block as a mini‑deadline, so you stay focused and the legacy work moves forward at a steady, efficient pace.
