<p class="MsoNormal">Hi All, <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In anticipation of the upcoming transition to the integrated RBMS Controlled Vocabulary for Rare Materials Cataloging, the Controlled Vocabularies Editorial Group (CVEG) requested changes to the MARC source code list located here:
<a href="https://www.loc.gov/standards/sourcelist/genre-form.html">https://www.loc.gov/standards/sourcelist/genre-form.html</a>. However, these changes will not be in effect until the formal publication of the new thesaurus this summer. As of now, the thesauri
available here are valid for use: <a href="https://rbms.info/vocabularies/index.shtml">
https://rbms.info/vocabularies/index.shtml</a><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The code for the integrated thesaurus will be “rbmscv” and will be valid for use upon the publication of the RBMS Controlled Vocabulary for Rare Materials Cataloging via id.loc.gov.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We requested the MARC Standards Office also add a note to the former codes. They added the following note:
<span style="color:black">deprecated; use "rbmscv." However, these vocabularies and codes are valid for use until the transition to the integrated thesaurus. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="color:black">Please feel free to email me with any questions.
