<p class="MsoNormal">Hi Glenn,<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">I am the editor for DCRM (RDA Edition). Our original publication schedule was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. At this point, the Editorial Group has completed a draft of the book-related instructions for DCRMR. The RBMS Bibliographic
Standards Committee will begin reviewing the initial text in the next month. We hope to release a draft for public review this summer or fall. We will also begin incorporating additional manuals into DCRMR and crafting policy statements to add to the RDA Toolkit.
In the meantime, the options for using DCRM and RDA outlined at <a href="https://rbms.info/dcrm/rda/">
https://rbms.info/dcrm/rda/</a> are still available. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I will be giving a more detailed update on DCRMR at tomorrow’s BSC meeting. The meeting agenda is available on the RBMS website:

https://rbms.info/bibliographic_standards/committee-docs/bibstandagenda2021-01-29.pdf</a>. We also keep the current status of DCRMR is posted at
<a href="https://rbms.info/dcrm/rda/">https://rbms.info/dcrm/rda/</a>. I’m always happy to answer any questions posted to DCRM-L or to me directly.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Now that the RDA 3-R Project has been completed, is there any news on when the DCRM (RDA Edition) is likely to be completed? Apologies if this has already been asked.<o:p></o:p></p>

<div>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
</div>
<div>
<p class="MsoNormal">Also, of DCRM-G, does anyone have an opinion on whether the prescribed specific material designation terms (see DCRM-G 5B2.1) should be expanded to include RDA carrier types and RDA extent units?<o:p></o:p></p>
