<p class=MsoNormal>The general material designation is included as an option in
DCRM (Music).&nbsp; I think this or something like it should be an option, so
that a repository can make a local decision depending on local opac search and display
functions.&nbsp; I like the idead of separating this information into one or
more separate fields, though the question is how will systems display and
search these fields.&nbsp; At the Beinecke Library, we don't use 245 $h for
manuscripts, relying instead on record type for search limits (and information
in the 520 for identification and description of manuscripts).&nbsp; It does seem
like next generation opacs are identifying manuscripts and other formats in
opac displays by record type.<o:p></o:p></p>
