[DCRM-L] RBMS Controlled Vocabularies: Scope notes for public review

[Hoover, Sarah]

Dear colleagues,

The RBMS Controlled Vocabularies Editorial Group (CVEG) is announcing a new batch of scope notes available for public comment on our blog. These proposed scope notes are for existing terms in the RBMS Controlled Vocabulary for Rare Materials Cataloging. Scope notes will be available for public comment from November 10, 2025 through November 24, 2025. After the public review period, CVEG will discuss the comments and make necessary changes before updating the vocabulary.

To comment, please respond to the appropriate term post. The terms for this review period are:
