<div>Erin, I somehow learned a couple months ago about the BSR revision and the fact that it was going to incorporate/update details for rare and special materials, so I weighed in in quite a bit of detail, since LOTS of things weren't right. At the last minute,
and contrary to my humble recommendations, they expanded the "rare books" section to include "rare" graphics and music, and that bit of garbling ensued. It seems the revision group was somewhat torn about whether to include aspects of "special" cataloging
under the other format sections.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'll get in touch with the folks in charge and report back.</div>

</div>
<div>Thanks for raising this. I had missed the error.</div>

<div>Just re-read what I wrote about the BSR, and realized it's unclear. Here's a translation: the Rare Materials 007 should have been changed so that the section only applies graphics, and to microforms of books and music. Something went wrong, because the
new wording doesn't make sense.</div>
