<p class="x_MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-CA" style="font-family:"Arial",sans-serif">I was wondering whether it would be considered erroneous to use a question mark in the MARC 300 field to indicate uncertainty about the printing technique of an art print. I’ve
consulted both DCRM(G) and RDA, but unfortunately, I haven’t found any instruction that explicitly allows this. However, there are cases where there is genuine doubt about the printing technique, and it would be convenient if there was a way to reflect that
uncertainty in the description (like I have seen on museum labels).</span></p>
