[DCRM-L] Cataloging Question - how to catalog differences in publisher's bindings

Hi, all --

This is an interesting thread. Forgive me, I ask as an amateur: would it be
desirable and feasible, for example, to set out principles or "best
practice" options for cataloguing copy-(or item-)specific features, e.g.
uses of 561, 562, 563, 59X fields, 7XX, holdings 852, of sub-headings, copy
location after library code etc.?

All best,

Nicholas.
