<P class=MsoNormal><SPAN style="FONT-FAMILY: 'Georgia','serif'; COLOR: #215868">One of the charges of the TF was to give specific and immediate guidance to catalogers wanting to catalog rare materials according to RDA. I am thinking that the recent BSR for rare materials approved by the Bibliographic Standards Committee does that. Do others agree? No need to reinvent the wheel if the recent work by Bob Maxwell, Francis Lapka, and Jain Fletcher is satisfactory. The link below to the ALA Connect vote contains the attached proposed BSR.</SPAN></P>
