is the general idea that choosing a source with additional information is a positive thing for rare materials and something to hold onto for DCRM cataloging.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

</span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:#1F497D">reminded me of the objectives and principles section of a DCRM introduction—the underlying rationale for having DCRM rules. The text points out that users of rare materials
must frequently perform identification and selection tasks without direct access to the material—consultation from a distance, limited access due to fragile condition of an item; inability to browse among items held in secured locations.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="mso-margin-top-alt:auto;mso-margin-bottom-alt:auto"><span style="color:black">If a difference like this does remain in DCRM it needs to be justified by a *rare* reason, and not just be there because we think it's a good idea. I'm
having a hard time seeing a requirement arising from the fact that we're cataloging rare materials that makes us depart from RDA on this particular issue.<br>

<p><span style="color:black">All DCRM modules are compatible with the idea expressed in DCRM(B) 0C3: “ … if a single <a href="https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__desktop.loc.gov_search-3Fview-3Ddocument-26doc-5Faction-3Dsetdoc-26doc-5Fkeytype-3Dfoliodestination-26doc-5Fkey-3DdcrmbTitleSPACEproperSLASHglossary-26hash-3DTitleSPACEproperSLASHglossary-26fq-3Dallresources-257Ctrue&d=AwMFAg&c=-dg2m7zWuuDZ0MUcV7Sdqw&r=t7GDkvcZa922K6iya7a6MxgVxxw7OjL0m1rPBXkflk4&m=BjeXZmLm1Jw9h2eF77smVbkjBumEpXxyXRcSHJ8uXxo&s=AVxnDydtRPSjomcJ5Fi6TKLUxFOIUpBL5g4DZSLP9_Q&e=" target="_blank">title

<p><span style="color:black"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="color:black">All are also compatible with the idea of an ordered list of preferred sources when (quoting B) “different titles, or differing forms of the same title, appear within the publication.”<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="color:black"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="color:black">When, however, “the *<b>same title proper</b>* is available in more than one source within the resource” there is a noteworthy difference. In Serials, this condition is not treated separately from that in which differing titles
appear. That is, Serials prescribes the ordered list of preferred sources. The Serials approach mimics that of RDA (see 2.2.2.2).
<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="color:black"> <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p><span style="color:black">For this condition, the other DCRM modules say to choose “the source that supplies the most additional information” – an idea entirely absent from RDA. If the next version of DCRM maintains this guideline, it would represent a major
departure from RDA. Is this variation justifiable?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
