<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>On behalf of the group that
worked on the draft BSR for Rare Books, I’d like to respond to the points Deborah
has raised. The Task Group has taken some time to consider this,
particularly the issues associated with area four. This raises questions
about how to interpret the instructions for area four and points to an
important discussion for the DCRM community.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>DCRM(B) rule 4A6 and its
explanatory footnote clearly separate the issues of how the roles of publisher
v. manufacturer were different in the hand press period than they were in the
19<sup>th</sup> century and beyond. We believe the intention here is to
allow for accurate transcription of all permutations found in
publisher/manufacturing statements. Deborah’s statements are true for
books of the hand-press era. The text prepared for the 260 portion of the
BSR for Rare Books took into account that the majority of situations would fall
into the possibility of recording either publisher or printer in $a-b.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>However, our understanding of
rule 4A6 and its explanatory footnote is a broad interpretation that allows for
the possibility of an instance where “[S.l. : s.n.] ; <date> $e
(<place> : $f <printer>)” could exist. The scope of the BSR
for Rare Books does not exclude books printed after 1800. It is these
later materials, where only information related to printing is found on the
item and publication information is unknown, that call for such an
allowance. As an example, a 19<sup>th</sup> century or later book may
have no publisher statement and very small printed text in the colophon giving
the name and location of the stereotyping or collotyping. This
constitutes an absence of true publication information, and we believe that
rule 4A6 and its footnote agree with the rationale for recording this
information in the $e-f in this instance.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>With regard to the two notes in
question for the BSR for Rare Books, the MAP was modeled on the Books
BSR. The Task Group agrees that it would be appropriate to drop the 505
note from the MAP and to add a note (Mandatory if Applicable) for transposition
of transcribed text.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

you for the opportunity to comment on the BSR drafts. I've read over the BSR
for Rare Books and think it is a fine document, with only a couple of places
that still need refinement. (With contrite apologies to my RBMS colleagues for
not catching these while the BSR draft was still in the drafting stage.) <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Palatino Linotype","serif"'>This
instruction to supply helpful information in subfields ‡e‡f‡g violates the
rules for area 4. See especially 4A6, which elaborates (in great detail!) the
relationships between publication/distribution and manufacture in the hand-press
era and how to treat them. The only time 260 ‡e‡f‡g may be used is when an item
1) bears both a publisher, distributor, etc., statement and a manufacturer
statement, 2) the publisher is emphasized over the manufacturer, and 3) the two
statements are grammatically separable. (4A6.3.2.2) If an item does not
bear substantive information, the cataloger uses subfields ‡a‡b‡c to supply
whatever information can be had. I recommend dropping these three subfields
entirely from the BSR for Rare Books. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
