I was going to note the proposal. The revision proposal is for the creation of a new relationship element at the work level to allow a relationship between (for example) a person who is curator of an exhibition and a work produced by that exhibition (e.g. an exhibition catalog). (The current RDA relationship element is at the item level and so would not be appropriate to use to link an exhibition curator with the exhibition catalog.)<br>
<br>
<br>
As to the specific question, I don't have a record to point you to, but I would think that if a catalog record were created for a collection--e.g. at BYU we have science fiction writer Orson Scott Card's papers and there is a record in the catalog for that collection--the curator of the collection could appropriately be included in the record with the relationship "curator" and this would be at the item level.<br>

I guess "curator" could be an item-specific relationship if you go far enough down the rabbit hole: we have a field in our Acquisitions module where we record the curator responsible for deciding a collection item should be acquired (an issue because it's often mistaken for the curator whose budget it came from, but it's the intellectual contribution we're documenting; the financial contribution is recorded elsewhere). That field could, in theory, be part of the MARC record in the OPAC.<br>

Clarifying my last sentence: the word "item" in this case means the collection as a whole, not an individual "item" in the collection. In the FRBR/LRM/RDA framework a collection exists at all the WEMI levels so it is appropriate to think of the collection as a whole as an "item", even though there is only one item (the collection), one manifestation (the same collection), one expression (the same collection), and one work (the same collection).<br>
