<p><span style="font-family:"Book Antiqua",serif">Hi All:</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Book Antiqua",serif">I just worked with Ellen Cordes at the Lewis Walpole Library for a few days recently in order to learn how to catalogue</span><span style="font-family:"Book
Antiq",serif">
</span><span style="font-family:"Book Antiqua",serif">graphic</span><span style="font-family:"Book

</span><span style="font-family:"Book Antiqua",serif">using DCRMG.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p><span style="font-family:"Book Antiqua",serif">I had a fantastic time and Ellen is a wonderful teacher.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p>I started to put it into practice when I got back to my library and have run across a question which Ellen suggested I pose to the list:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>It involves the correct usage of the relator term #e depicted.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>The definition of the relator term reads:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>"<span class="authorized">Depicted</span><span class="relator-code"> [dpc]</span> -- An entity depicted or portrayed in a work, particularly in a work of art"<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Does the word "entity" have any weight here. Can I use the term with a group of persons (e.g. Jesuits or Quakers) or can it only apply to a single person, whether real of fictional?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Thanks for your advice and input.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p>Best,<o:p></o:p></p>
