Hmmm ... I wouldn't have called it colored. This is clearly something we =
have to figure out and make it clear in our own rules. Actually, since =
this is not a rare book issue, perhaps the JSC or LC needs to figure out =
what it means and let us know. --DJL

Subject: Re: [DCRB-L] Colored illustrations
I just had an illustration printed in one color (green) on bright =
yellow paper. I took it around to catalogers and various library =
assistants. *Everyone* said this was "Colored". With the logo, if all =
you had was the RBMS--just red on white background--would that not be =
colored.
"Not Colored", to me, is something that is black, white and/or =
grayscale. "Colored" has at least one color, other than black, white =
or grayscale. (I don't know about sepia)

some issues with WG3 recommendations regarding that, which I will post =
in due time.
