Hi Deborah,

The proposed SN for Literary hoaxes, which we will vote on at Annual, is: Use for writings that are forged or fabricated with the intent to deceive. Glad to have another exemplar! -Ryan

Oh, of course! Yes.

What's the status of the scope note for Literary hoaxes? There is no scope note online, and the discussion on pbworks is inconclusive.

I'm cataloging the 1855 edition of Shakespeare's works edited by J. Payne Collier, in which he gives the readings according to a "newly-discovered" emended copy of the second folio, which later came out that he himself emended in a forged 17c hand.

I'm looking at the controlled vocabulary for fakery in the printing & publishing vocabulary. Neither "fakes" nor "forgeries" has a scope note. http://www.rbms.info/committees/bibliographic_standards/controlled_vocabularies/printing-publishing/tr294.htm

What do I have? The publication isn't itself a forgery--that would be the copy of the 2nd folio that Collier marked up. Do I have a "fake"?

Information, advice, and musings aloud welcome.

Thanks,
Deborah
