<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you everyone who participated in the recent discussion of extent of text provisions in the RBMS PS. My summary of the discussion and the proposed outcomes is available in google docs (<a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/1dvdy6ZkM9EXrkU3Hszo3zX4-7EdQvASy8PeJsWaTE5c/edit?usp=sharing">https://docs.google.com/document/d/1dvdy6ZkM9EXrkU3Hszo3zX4-7EdQvASy8PeJsWaTE5c/edit?usp=sharing</a>)
and will be discussed further at the next Bibliographic Standards Committee Virtual Meeting on May 31, 11-noon PDT (formal announcement and agenda will be forthcoming). Of note, in reviewing the various arguments, I have been persuaded that there is no rare
materials specific reason to justify the RBMS PS varying from RDA and using “i.e.” versus “that is” to denote corrections.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">And now the overdue follow-up question I promised regarding unnumbered leaves of plates. The current draft RBMS PS for “3.4.5.9.2 Unnumbered Leaves or Pages of Plates” reads as follows:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">“<span style="color:black">Always record the extent of unnumbered leaves or pages of plates.
<b>If a volume contains a mixture of unnumbered leaves and pages of plates, record the number either in terms of leaves or of pages.</b> Record unnumbered pages or leaves by enclosing the total number in the sequence within square brackets.”</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The middle sentence, in bold, was taken directly from DCRM(B) 5B9.2 and also appeared in DCRM(B)’s predecessor DCRB. The question arose during the Example Group’s work, whether we wish to continue this practice or if it were preferable
in these cases to record the unnumbered plates in terms of leaves and pages as printed. For example:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in">[6] page of plates, [12] leaves of plates
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in">vs.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in">[15] leaves of plates <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-indent:.5in"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Any opinions are greatly appreciated. This will be the last review question, prior to the RDA’s 3R reveal.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
