Recently, in the process of reviewing instructions corresponding to DCRM(B) 4A6 which provide guidance on how to handle printers or booksellers also functioning as publishers, the DCRM-RDA Task Force asked CV editors to define/redefine the scope for the relationship
designators publisher, printer, and bookseller. <br>
