Sandra asked last October if we should bring in a map cataloger as advisor for any rare maps cataloging appendix. I think yes to this and for the other formats too. 

I think we should initially scope out other descriptive codes already in existence to catalog nonbook formats (and any advisors would tell us this) and figure out the best way to link the two codes: a simple referral to the other code from DCRB -- and vice versa?or something more elaborate?
