RBMS CVRMC is a linked data thesaurus that combines the former RBMS Thesauri (Genre, Binding, Type, Printing and Publishing, Paper, and Provenance) into a single resource with a redesigned structure. It is hosted by the Library of Congress Linked Data Service at<span class="Apple-converted-space"> </span></span><a href="https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/rbmscv.html" style="color: rgb(5, 99, 193); text-decoration: underline;" class=""><span style="font-family: Arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(17, 85, 204);" class="">https://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/rbmscv.html</span></a><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;" class="">.

When using terms from RBMS CVRMC in a MARC record, the new code is $2 rbmscv. The six former thesauri are now officially deprecated.</span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""><o:p class=""> </o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in;" class=""><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;" class="">We are in the process of creating a crosswalk spreadsheet for use in bibliographic file maintenance, and we will make an announcement once it is available.

We are particularly grateful to our fellow members of the Thesaurus Integration Subgroup, Amy Brown, Ryan Hildebrand, Jennifer Bradshaw, and Brian Stearns, who gave generously of their time, expertise, and good humor. We are also grateful for the support of Nate Trail and LC’s Linked Data Service and their hosting and support of the RBMS CVRMC going forward. </span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""><o:p class=""> </o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in;" class=""><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;" class="">We also wanted to share responses to some of the larger themes that arose from the public feedback, and those responses follow.</span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""><o:p class=""> </o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in;" class=""><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;" class="">Best,</span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in;" class=""><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;" class="">Brenna Bychowski and Lauren Reno</span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in;" class=""><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;" class="">Co-chairs, RBMS Controlled Vocabularies Editorial Group</span><o:p class=""></o:p></div><div style="margin: 0in; font-size: 11pt; font-family: Calibri, sans-serif;" class=""><br class=""><br class=""><o:p class=""></o:p></div><ol start="1" type="1" style="margin-bottom: 0in; margin-top: 0in;" class=""><li style="margin-top: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; vertical-align: baseline;" class=""><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;" class="">New terms.

We approved the policy to not allow subdivisions for the new thesaurus back in 2019, and we continue to support that decision. We understand that several institutions make heavy use of the terms that were specifically intended for subdivision, especially Typefaces. CVEG never maintained authorized subdivisions for any of those terms, so there was no standardization or control coming from RBMS. Any control of subdivisions happening within a given institution is being done by that institution, and that work can continue going forward, using $2 local instead of an RBMS code.<o:p class=""></o:p></span></li><li style="margin-top: 0in; margin-bottom: 0in; vertical-align: baseline;" class=""><span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: Arial, sans-serif;" class="">Hierarchical view.
