Explanation:
"Éditer" (le mot français) = to publish

Le "editor" d'un journal décide quoi va où. Dans votre cas, il décide ce qui va faire parti de la collection (..du catalogue) de la phototèque.

Explanation:
As you are talking about photographs, "edition" or "montage" i.e. you choose the photos you want and return the others, both are possible and plausible.
