<p class="MsoNormal">General comments.<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">References alternate between specific and general,
for
example, in 7B19.3.1 and 7B19.3.2. The former refers to 7B10 (rather
than
7B10.4); the latter refers specifically to 5B15.3. Other instances are
noted
below.<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I also notice a discrepancy throughout the
document
regarding the inclusion of commas and other punctuation within closing
quotation marks.<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Specific comments.<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Page 119, bold "7A1. General instructions."<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Page 120, bold "7A3. Sources of information" and
"7A4. Form of notes."<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Page 125, 7B6.4: change "Give" to "Record."<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Page 126, line 3, delete closing parenthesis.<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Page 126, 7B7.3 and 7B7.5: change instances of
"give" to "record."</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">There are other instances of "give" in section
7 that could be changed to "supply" or "record." If the editorial
committee feels that this is important they may wish to review each
instance.<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Reference in 7B7.5 to 7B19.1 could be made to
7B19.1c.<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Page 128, 7B9.2. Reference to Appendix G,
specifically G3,
might be more useful than to 0G8.2.<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> Also, italicize "Editorial comment" below
[fist]
and [maltese cross].<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Page 128-129, 7B9.3, re: "'chi'." and
"'[superscript
chi]'." Periods should be within closing quotation mark.<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Page 129, 7B9.7. In example, the word "Signatures"
is not in the correct typeface.<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Page 131, 7B9.11. Confirm that characters in first
example
are intended to appear as boxes.<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Pages 131-132, 7B10.2. The following notes seem to
belong to
7B10.1: " The first and last leaves are blank," "Volumes
numbered: 1, 2A, 2B, 2C, 3," " Printed on vellum," and "
Printed on a quarter sheet."<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Page 132, 7B10.5. Reference to 7B19 as a whole may
be more
appropriate than 7B19.1.<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Page 134, bold "7B15. Summary."<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Page 135, 7B16.2. In the first example, should
there be an
apostrophe either before or after the final "s" of
"spinning-wheels"?<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Page 136, 7B18.1. Insert period after first
instance of
"With:". (Unsure if the period should be placed within closing
parenthesis? It looks odd. See comment re: Page 139, 7B19.3.4 for
another
possible solution.)<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Page 136, 7B18.3. The reference could be made to
7B19.3.4
rather than 7B19.1.<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Page 137, 7B19.1c. Reference could be made to
7B10.3 rather
than 7B10; reference could be made to 7B7.5 rather than 7B7.<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Page 138, 7B19.3.1. The reference could be made to
7B10.4
rather than 7B10.<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Page 139, 7B19.3.4 gives the instruction, "Preface
the
note with the words 'Bound with' followed by a colon," while in 7B18
the
colon for "With:" notes is indicated only implicitly. Should the
instructions be harmonized? I prefer for both intellectual and
typographical
clarity the instruction given in 7B19.3.4.<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">7B19.3.6. "'gold-tooled', 'blind-tooled'" should
be "'gold-tooled,' 'blind-tooled'" (move comma inside closing
parenthesis of "gold-tooled."<o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">7B19.3.7 "end-paper decoration, references" should
be "end-paper decoration; references." Unsure if "(or related
bindings), etc." should be "(or related bindings); etc."<br>
