[DCRM-L] Cataloging known forgeries

[Schneider, Nina]

Does anyone have experience cataloging known forgeries? The Clark has a
small group of these and I'm wondering if there is a "proper" way to
describe them.

Here is what we're thinking: cataloging according to DCRM(B) rules on
fictitious or incorrect information, using the relator code, "attributed
name" after our supposed author, and adding "False association copies"
from Provenance Evidence in a 655 field. Although these steps should
make it clear that we really don't have an Einstein pamphlet or letters
of Nathaniel Hawthorne, I just want to make sure we aren't missing
anything before we proceed.

Thanks for any advice!

Nina
