V.  Language Preferences  (Introduction)

DCRM(B) is written for an English-speaking context.  Cataloging agencies preparing descriptions in the context of a different language should replace instructions and guidelines prescribing or implying the use of English into their preferred language (see 4B3-4, 4B8-12, 4E, and areas 5 and 7).
