[DCRM-L] False vs Fictitious imprints...

[Robert Maxwell]

No problem with your test. My practical question is, is there a cataloging reason why it is important that I determine that place X is fictitious vs. false, or vice versa? Will I treat the information in a different way depending on if it’s “fictitious” or if it’s “false”? 4B9 just has us copy what’s there and add in brackets the correct place if we know it.

Practical (though perhaps supererogatory) reason: For the information of those who cannot satisfactorily resolve the test I suggested, whether from lack of knowledge or lack of confidence?
