Dear DCRM-Lers,
 
Since DCRM(B)'s publication is imminent (yay!), Deborah, Manon, and I
have been thinking about DCRM-L and suggest a slight change of focus. We
propose that the list now be open to rare materials cataloging questions
and discussions in general rather than only specifically focussing on
the rule revision process (though that discussion will continue as
necessary--we still have the other modules to publish!). This has
already started to happen a bit--we have from time to time had people
write in with cataloging questions. I think the three of us just wanted
to make clear that we think that is fine and hope we'll be able to use
the list to help folks with specific problems and promote rare materials
cataloging generally. We hope this change of focus will be welcome. The
list members are a great resource, and a narrowly tailored list devoted
to rare cataloging issues might be more useful to some than the rather
free wheeling range of topics that come up on the other rare materials
related lists.
 
Thanks,
Bob
