<p class=MsoNormal>"Blank forms" is in Genre Terms, but unscoped. AAT
has a scope note for "blank forms" that reads: Forms whose spaces
provided for information have not been filled.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>The AAT scope doesn't sit quite right with me, because it's
combining both a genre (blank form) with copy-specific information (hasn't been
filled out). Does it make sense to anyone else that if and when RBMS gives a
scope note for this, it should apply to all copies of the edition, regardless
of what has happened to the form after distribution?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>I also wonder why anyone would be interested in blank blank
forms, but not in filled-out blank forms. <o:p></o:p></p>
