Steering Committee (RSC) formed a Rare Materials Working Group to assist the RSC in developing the treatment of rare materials in RDA (see: <a href="http://www.rda-rsc.org/workinggroups"

One of the tasks assigned to the working group was a review of all RDA exceptions (etc.) for Early Printed Resources. To this end, the WG will submit a handful of RDA revision proposals for RSC review in the 2016 cycle. All proposals are due by August 1. The WG is very interested in comments from members of this list. </span></p><p style="background:white"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black"> </span></p><p style="background:white"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Georgia","serif";color:black">Three proposals ready for review are described below (and in the document here: </span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri","sans-serif";color:black"><a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1AFybjUog0_vu34MgprzPGp2ktrIYq4Du6IQWlBolth8/edit" target="_blank"><span style="font-family:"Georgia","serif";color:#0563c1">https://docs.google.com/document/d/1AFybjUog0_vu34MgprzPGp2ktrIYq4Du6IQWlBolth8/edit</span></a></span><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Georgia","serif";color:black">).
