Dear Collective Wisdom, Is there a good decorative arts dictionary/glossary-type resource out there? I'm cataloging a book about Moroccan carpets and I'm wondering if "rugs" would be an appropriate subject heading to add to the record in addition to "Carpets -- Morocco". The book only uses the word "carpet", but I'm thinking that since the two words are often used interchangeably that it might be a good idea to put in "rugs" as well. LC Authorities makes little to no distinguishable difference between the two, and I can't find any resource that does. Do any of you know of any resource(s) that might shed some light on this?
