Guidelines for Minimally Punctuated MARC Bibliographic Records</span></a> effective January 2020, there is now the option to remove non-integral punctuation between subfields, I wonder what other institutions are doing to account for this in their workflows,
automated processes, or public displays, especially regarding special collections materials, or records following DCRM and legacy standards (DCRB, BDRB, etc.). At Columbia, we are not currently creating minimally punctuated records but expect they may begin
to show up in copy, so we are in the process of testing how they will display in our OPAC and investigating what our authorities vendor (Backstage) will do to them in record processing.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">It seems that when this DCRM-L thread last left off, we considered transcribed original punctuation to be integral to the data even if not part of an abbreviation or initial, but I note that the new OCLC PunctuationRemove macro removes
some "double punctuation." <o:p></o:p></p>

Since then, we have been working on the implementation plan. The complexity of implementing all three options outlined in that email (dated 12/12/2018 and included below) at the same time presents more challenges than we anticipated. In addition, there are
issues pertinent to access point fields that require more discussion. We believe we should move forward but need to do so in a way that is manageable and will allow us to achieve some consistency. After considering all the possibilities, we have revised the
policy which to address punctuation in descriptive fields only. The revised policy will be implemented in phases:
