In preparation, the editors (Todd Fell, Manon Théroux, Nancy Kandoian, Laurence Creider, and Randal Brandt) invite you to review the draft text. Expertise in cartographic materials cataloging is NOT a requirement for readers. The editors are specifically looking for feedback on sections that may be confusing or unclear to those with no (or limited) experience cataloging cartographic materials. They are also looking for any problems with the text, including, but not limited to, typos, incorrect references, errors, etc. There are also still a number of examples that are needed; suggestions to fill in gaps will be greatly appreciated. The draft text is available for viewing and downloading at http://www.rbms.info/ committees/bibliographic_ standards/dcrm/dcrmc/dcrmc. html We welcome comments in person at the public hearing, as well as comments in writing.

It is intended to replace the rules for cataloging early cartographic materials currently found in Chapter 3 of /Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules/, Second Edition (AACR2) and /Cartographic Materials: A Manual of Interpretation for AACR2/, Second Edition (CM). It is also anticipated that the PCC RDA BIBCO Standard Record (BSR) will be updated to incorporate guidance on using DCRM(C) to create bibliographic records for early and rare cartographic materials under RDA.
