<span style="font-size:12pt">In regard to specific MARC fields for notes, it was determined that recommending in the examples section use of a generic 500 note with a header -- e.g., "Binding:" -- was to be preferred for ease over more specific notes, such
as a 563 for binding. At the time of publication in 2003, it was felt that generally only archives utilized such fields and that some/many institutions would have difficulty in implementing the more exotic MARC fields in their systems. There was never an intention
to preclude the use of more feature-specific MARC fields, although giving the direction under each note to "preceed this note with the heading [X]" does assume the use of a 500 note. It was a compromise.</span></p>

<span style="font-size:12pt">On expansion of abbreviations, the approach to transcription taken in AMREMM was to follow as closely as possible the common </span><span style="font-size:12pt">paleographical transcription and text editing conventions employed
in the field of manuscript studies. At the time, individual components of a MARC field were to be bracketed individually, although now I understand a single set of brackets suffice. However, in expanding abbreviations of manuscript text, each instance of expansion
is bracketed -- the rationale within manuscript studies being that each expansion is the subjective interpretation of the individual reading/transcribing the handwritten text, which ought to be signaled. Because of the complications that can arise in recording
contents of multiple works (whole or fragmentary) contained in a single manuscript, an exception was provided in the notes (7A3) either to signal or not to signal expansion of abbreviations, so long as a consistent approach was taken.</span></p>

<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">Sorry I am late to the discussion, but I would like to make a few comments on this thread. I was involved with the creation of AMREMM and acted as an informal representative to BSC when it was being written and adopted.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">Deborah's comments are to the point and excellent. At this point, I would think that Matt's first and second points might be combined. Thank you both.<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">Gregory Pass is the author of AMREMM and should be contacted during any revision process. I have added his e-mail (gregory.pass@slu.edu) to my reply. He should also be able to point to people who use AMREMM and have
the expertise to comment on some of the suggested changes. On the other hand, the manual was adopted by BSC and was passed by CC:DA.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">AMREMM was originally placed outside the DCRM suite. If DCRM will no longer have an independent existence after the rare materials cataloging desiderata are incorporated into RDA via the BSR and PS (If I have things
straight), the question is whether AMREMM should be shoehorned into an inhospitable environment. The essential difficulty is that RDA and ISBD and library cataloging in general is not designed for the description of unique items. Take the publication, etc.
info. MSS are produced, and the mss covered by AMREMM rarely have a specific date or place of production on the item itself. For the most part, scholars have to be satisfied with expert judgment about the script and the codicology. Frequently, one counts
oneself lucky if the approximate portion of a century or the approximate portion of a country can be identified, e.g. beginning of the 9th century in southern England. <br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">On the other hand, I doubt that putting things into different MARC fields will be a problem, particularly since AMREMM was designed to support MARC cataloging. MARC has always been a moving target, so to speak. Similarly,
there should be no question about the use of RDA in determining or formulating access points. Definitions of some fields may be a problem if they do not allow for manuscripts.</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">I do not think that mss from all periods should be put together. I don't want to go into detail, but there are different needs and conventions in the way users (mostly scholars) describe and therefore find these items.
BSC already has a manuscripts module for modern materials, and I believe that it was not designed to cover the material in AMREMM. The fact that the majority of medieval mss are compilations of multiple works only adds to the problem.<br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0"><br>
</p>
<p style="margin-top:0; margin-bottom:0">I am running out of mental energy and have to be somewhere else, so I will stop here. I hope my musings are of some help.</p>
