apologize for forgetting to discuss the proposed DCRM(B) appendix on
collection-level cataloging. The editors (John Attig, Bob Maxwell, Joe
Springer, Manon Théroux, and me) did discuss it during our day and a half
meeting after the conference in </span></font><font face="Palatino Linotype"><span

on collection-level records in front of me, but whether or not I'm right in
assuming that the instruction for giving the collector the main entry came from
there, the editors need to be persuaded that this is appropriate for the
cataloging of printed materials. Section D on &quot;Elements of the catalog
record&quot;, a) on <i><span style='font-style:italic'>1XX field: Main entry heading</span></i>
starts out well by emphasizing that title main entry is appropriate for many
collections, and for requiring that all items comprised by the collection
record have the same personal or corporate authorship. This is in compliance
with AACR2.</span></font></p>

considering deleting that provision. Naturally in such a case, the collector
