Cataloging Manual Revisions (memorandum 15, September 22, 1995)
 

Documents in the Cataloging Manual need to be revised from time to time to maintain their currency. Anyone who perceives the need for a change, e.g. a document affected by a change in policy or procedure introduced in a different document, inconsistencies between documents, a suggestion for a new procedure, etc., should report the problem to the chair of the CCAG, currently Gary Hough (ghough@library.umass.edu).
