<p>When we (the SCF editors) recommended the use of the word "entry" in $c, we were simply trying to be very unambiguous in citing the location by making clear distinctions between entry numbers and page, etc. numbers. However, in light of the passionate protests
from the rare materials community (and the confession of some of our own number that they had been omitting "entry" from their citations as well!) we have decided to adjust the recommendation in our Working Principles to allow for cataloger's judgment. It
now reads:</p>
<p><br>
</p>
Include the term “entry” (or other term appropriate to the resource) before the entry number
<i>if needed or desired for clarity</i>.
<p></p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I would also like to take this opportunity to remind everyone that you can always use the "Contact Us" link to bring issues to our attention.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p></p>
<p>Thank you all for your patience as we iron out the wrinkles in this new resource, and rest assured that no rare book cataloging cards have been revoked.</p>

<div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:georgia,serif; font-size:small">I do agree with Will Evans concerning a 642 analogue in SCF records, which I suggested independently in a related correspondence. Best if it were simply routine, to obviate agonizing
about whether or not "the form of the enumeration [does/]does not correspond directly to the resource". Editorial judgment might be the basis for adding a "location within source complexity note".</div>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt; font-family:"Bookman Old Style","serif"; color:#1f497d">While we are on the subject of enumeration, I wonder if any thought has been given to adding to the established citations something analogous to the
642 field (series numbering example) that is sometimes found in series authority records. I think this would be helpful in situations where the preferred form of the numeration does not correspond directly to the resource. Wing comes to mind.
