4. Reports
   
   
   1. NACO-AV Funnel (I. Wolley for A. Caldwell)
      
      The OLAC Funnel Project contributed 2,093 names, 9 series, and modified 342 names in the past fiscal year.
      
      
   2. MARBI Report (J. Attig)
      
      MARBI has a light schedule this ALA. There will be a discussion and review of XML and MARC.
      
      Proposal 2003-02 suggests the addition of subfield $u to 538. The group had no objections to this proposal.
      
      Discussion paper 2003-DP02 concerns coding for graphics in leader/06. Instead of using the current designations of projected and nonprojected graphics, this paper suggests using moving image and still image. This would result in moving the code for slides, filmstrips and transparencies from "g" to "k." Implementation would be biggest issue, as well as the cleanup of old records.
      
      2003-DP03 concerns adding 024 to MARC21 Authority Format. There were no objections.
      
      John’s complete report with the outcome of discussions appears elsewhere in this issue.
      
      
   3. CC:DA Report (J. Attig for S. Bogdanski)
      
      CC:DA will discuss rule revision proposals for Chapter 25, which will clarify whether uniform titles are identifying "works" or "expressions." Additional rules may be added for when expressions are not sufficiently identified. This step introduces FRBR into AACR. JSC is committing to major rule revisions. Whole chapters will be rewritten in major ways. Chapter 21 will be cast in FRBR terms. There will be a new Part III on authorities. The 2003 should include a new index. The 2004 revision package should eliminate Area 3 in Chapter 9, a revision of when to make a new record, and correction of examples in Chapter 3.
      
      For the outcome of CC:DA discussions, see John Attig’s CC:DA report elsewhere in this issue.

   5. Subcommittee on Source of Title Note for Internet Resources (I. Wolley for S. Miller) <http://www.olacinc.org/capc/stnir.html>
      
      Broken links have been noted. More work is needed in addressing Source of title for Integrating Resources.
