Rare Map Cataloging
News from ALA.
An editorial team has been appointed to develop DCRM(C). The initial plan of action calls for a review of Descriptive Cataloging of Rare Materials (Books) (DCRM(B)) and Cartographic Materials: A Manual of Interpretation for AACR2, Second Edition (CM) to identify 1) areas of conflict between the two standards, 2) lacunae in CM, whether or not they are addressed in DCRM(B), and 3) areas where existing guidance from practices and other sources (such as LC?s Map Cataloging Manual) usefully addresses conflicts and lacunae.
From the Feb. 2008 issue of Baseline.
