<div>Dear Ms. Rich,</div>
<div> </div>
<div>No MARC Code for <i>Descriptive Cataloging of Rare
Materials (Manuscripts)</i> has yet been designated or
announced by the Library of Congress. LC periodically
issues <i>Technical Notice</i><i>s</i> to announce new MARC
Codes; all of the <i>Technical
Notices</i> issued since June 2002, up to the most recent
issued on 2016 August 5, are online under the heading
"Change Announcements" at <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.loc.gov/marc/marcginf.html"><font
color="#0563C1"><u>http://www.loc.gov/marc/marcginf.html</u></font></a>.
It should also be noted that all of the announcements
include the proviso that "The codes should not be used in
exchange records until 60 days after the date of this notice
to provide implementers time to include newly-defined codes
in any validation tables."
As soon as LC announces the code, we could put it on our
schedule to be validated in WorldCat at the next available
installation following the sixty-day injunction. In
conjunction with that, we’ll also add the new code to the
list of descriptive convention
codes for rare and archival materials that render a
bibliographic record exempt from processing by our Duplicate
Detection and Resolution (DDR) software.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Mr. Haugen is correct that the code LC chooses will
almost certainly not include parentheses. as he also notes,
all of the currently valid MARC Codes for Bibliographic and
Authority fields 040 subfield $e can be found on the <i>Description
Convention
Source Codes</i> list at <a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.loc.gov/standards/sourcelist/descriptive-conventions.html"><font
color="#0563C1"><u>http://www.loc.gov/standards/sourcelist/descriptive-conventions.html</u></font></a>.
Each of the previous five DCRM publications
has an assigned code and we can expect that DCRM(MSS) will
get one as soon as LC can work it out.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>In the meantime, you may want to keep track of all the
records you create under DCRM(MMS) so that you can add the
appropriate code to field 040 subfield $e once it is
validated.</div>

<div> Hi Nina and all:</div>
<div> </div>
<div> Question here!!</div>
<div> I have just encoded the "$e dcrm(mss)" in the 040 in
a new MARC record </div>
<div> in OCLC today.</div>
<div> The code is unrecognized in OCLC and, thus, the
record will not verify.</div>

<div> </div>
<div> Hi Allison, The descriptive conventions source code
(040 $e) was requested</div>
<div> from the MARC Standards Office just after the BSC
vote to approve DCRM(MSS)</div>
<div> at ALA Annual in Orlando, about two months ago.</div>
<div> </div>
<div> We requested "dcrmmss" but the Standards Office has
not yet approved the</div>
<div> request, and it's possible they may choose a code
different from what we</div>
<div> requested. When approved, the new code will be
announced in a MARC technical</div>
<div> notice <<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.loc.gov/marc/marcginf.html#naa">http://www.loc.gov/marc/marcginf.html#naa</a>>
and added to the MARC list</div>
<div> of descriptive convention source codes.</div>
<div> <<a moz-do-not-send="true"
href="http://www.loc.gov/standards/sourcelist/descriptive-conventions.html">http://www.loc.gov/standards/sourcelist/descriptive-conventions.html</a>></div>
<div> </div>
<div> I do expect that the approved code will not contain
parentheses, as in your</div>
<div> example. Codes are composed of lowercase alphabetic
characters, numeric</div>
<div> characters 0 through 9, and the hyphen (-), up to a
maximum of 12</div>
<div> characters.</div>
<div> </div>
<div> Once MARC announces a new code in a technical notice,
they request a 60-day</div>
<div> waiting period on implementation in exchange records,
so that the code can</div>
<div> be added to validation tables. The MARC source code
site says "Implementers</div>
<div> may use newly assigned codes in their internal
systems immediately as long</div>
<div> as records containing new codes are not distributed
until after the waiting</div>
<div> period."</div>
<div> </div>
<div> As for OCLC, I think we may have to wait until the
next OCLC-MARC technical</div>
<div> bulletin that we will see the code validate in OCLC,
and those appear to</div>
<div> come out annually.</div>
<div> </div>
<div> I'll send an update to DCRM-L list as soon as I hear
more.</div>
<div> </div>
<div> Matt</div>
