<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Calibri",sans-serif;color:#1F497D">This sounds sensible to me. I can’t find an example right now, but I think ESTC makes notes about the microfilm reproductions which are the source
for most EEBO scans in a local note in the bibliographic record, so I can’t imagine anyone objecting if you emulated them. The challenge would be to remember to remove the note if/when EEBO corrects the error.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Georgia",serif;color:#222A35">A researcher looking at an STC item in our collection pointed out to me the reproduction in EEBO purporting to be that edition is, in fact,
<i>not</i>. As it happens, it was our copy from which EEBO’s reproduction was originally made, and they are clearly not the same. I’ve written to ProQuest and that information has been forwarded for review–but I’m not holding my breath. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:11.0pt;font-family:"Georgia",serif;color:#222A35">Would it be proper to make some kind of note in our catalog record—possibly in the holding?--about the discrepancy? This isn’t first time this has happened with digital
versions of our rare books, but increasingly I feel motivated to do more than sigh.
