[DCRM-L] Relationship designators

[Valerie Buck]

I've been using both RDA and RBMS relationship designators. But if the RBMS designator is abbreviated, I have opted to spell it out.

For those of you using RDA for rare materials, what are you doing about relationship designators? Are you using the RDA appendixes or the RBMS relator terms?

If RDA, are you piling on multiple |e in the same field when an entity has more than one relationship?
