<p>Dear collective wisdom, this is my first time trying to apply dcrm(b) to a manuscript.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I'm looking for a genre term for "manuscript" and I can't seem to find one in the RBMS controlled vocabularies, or lcgft. Can I just use lcsh?</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I have 3 handwritten leaves (it appears there are some missing), the text is about village fences and some of the English traditions around them (like annual circumambulation).</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>No provenance, no author, the date 1865 is mentioned. Obviously a Level K record.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Any help is much appreciated!<br>
</p>
