So, would we just ignore CIP information that would normally go in a transcription field? It's not unusual for me to find an edition and/or series statement only in the CIP. Is it best not to record information for these fields if it appears only in the CIP data, or should it be bracketed with maybe a note identifying the source?
Thanks!

(note the emphasis on *transcribed* elements, others would be ok) Hope this helps, Dave Reser LC Policy & Standards Division -----Original Message----- From: Resource Description and Access / Resource Description and Access [mailto:RDA-L@LISTSERV.LAC-BAC.GC.CA] On Behalf Of Michael Cohen Sent: Thursday, April 11, 2013 6:11 PM To: RDA-L@LISTSERV.LAC-BAC.GC.CA Subject: Re: [RDA-L] RDA & CIP You consider it so, and others consider it not so. But my question is really what does RDA say about it, and if it is silent then do we need an LC-PCC PS to address this question.
