I am one of the authors: This book (CCO) is a manual for describing, documenting, and cataloging cultural works and their visual surrogates. The primary focus of CCO is art and architecture, including but not limited to paintings, sculpture, prints, manuscripts, photographs, built works, and other visual media. It also covers many other types of cultural objects, including archaeological sites, artifacts, and functional objects from the realm of material culture.

CCO is designed for use by professionals in museum collections, visual resources collections, archives, and libraries that have a primary emphasis on art, architecture, and material culture.

It is the more concise and more prescriptive grandchild of the comprehensive set of rules, Categories for the Description of Works of Art (CDWA), and it refers to the controlled terminology of the Getty Vocabularies (both of which are available online).
