[DCRM-L] Legacy manuals/vocabularies

Tue May 17 09:48:20 MDT 2022

Hello Matthew et al.,

The different publisher for the early RBMS thesauri (ACRL instead of LC) accounts for the different treatment, I believe. When Bib Standards moved to an electronic platform for the thesauri, ACRL released copyright to us. Functionally in any case; not sure if there was a formal transfer. To be on the safe side, I suggest that someone in an official capacity—a CVEG editor—get in touch with ACRL Publications about making digitized versions of the paper thesauri freely available.

Subject: [DCRM-L] Legacy manuals/vocabularies

Hello,

While helping weed our departmental reference collection, I'm deciding the fate of our print copies of DCRB, BDRB, SCF, and the various controlled vocabularies. I do refer to these rarely even though they are no longer current. But since they've all been digitized, I'm more comfortable with sending our print copies offsite and deduplicating them. However a number of the digital versions are limited view, since they are not yet in public domain.

I seem to recall that BSC has been able to publish free PDFs of current DCRM and AMREMM manuals, since they are no longer in print. Would there be a case for publishing these legacy documents on the BSC website as well for the sake of posterity and comparative standards work, and/or taking steps to authorize Hathi or IA to publish these as full view?

Either way, perhaps the links below may be helpful to others as well.

Best,

Matthew
