Zusammenfassung:	Descriptive Cataloging of Rare Materials (Graphics), referred to hereafter as DCRM(G), is the direct successor to Elisabeth Betz Parker's Graphic Materials : Rules for Describing Original Items and Historical Collections, published by the Library of Congress in 1982. Known to many simply as "Betz" or "The Yellow Book," Graphic Materials became a classic. Revisions published in 1997 updated the manual to include examples encoded in the MARC format, but it was becoming clear that a true second edition was needed. Around the same time, the Bibliographic Standards Committee of the Rare Books and Manuscripts Section of the Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL/RBMS) began envisioning Descriptive Cataloging of Rare Materials (DCRM), a suite of manuals that would share principles, organization, and design, while each covering a different format of material (seeintroductorysectionI.1). In 2008, the ACRL/RBMS Bibliographic Standards Committee agreed to develop a second edition of Graphic Materials as a component of this suite. DCRM(G) is the result. The DCRM suite was already well under way when work on RDA : Resource Description and Access, the successor to the second edition of the Anglo-American Cataloguing Rules (AACR2) was announced. The publication of RDA in 2010 introduced potential future changes that will be addressed by the Bibliographic Standards Committee as it revises DCRM as a whole (see introductory section II.1)
