if we could get a table i dont think that it would be a problem,
we used to have funnel breakfast meetings and we were able to get a lot done

  Heidi,
  I am afraid that a breakfast meeting will not be productive: too limited 
time, too much noise in the dining hall, too many people around ...

    Monday would be my preference since I am leaving Tuesday afternoon. 
Alternatively how about a breakfast meeting Monday or Tuesday morning?

    As Lenore says, a serious discussion of these topics can go on for weeks. 
Yossi has just suggested to me that the meeting of the Cataloging Committee (no 
matter how far into the night it goes!) will not be long enough for us to 
really sink our teeth just into the various methods of approach. (Yossi's words 
were more along the lines of, "I've read the first page of the document and I 
have several critici... er, ques... er..."

    Perhaps we could schedule an extra meeting to go into some depth with this 
subject by itself.  With the permission of Rachel Simon, my roommate, I would 
be glad to offer my/our hotel room as a venue on Monday or Tuesday night, if we 
can't find someplace more spacious.

    Do any of you think this is a good idea?

    Dear Colleagues,

    I highly recommend that when we discuss this topic, we use Joan's excellent 
examples document/discussion paper as a guide.

    Joan didn't mention in her messages, but LC's Hebraica cataloging staff 
devoted a number of meetings to these issues, and managed only to reach 
consensus on the format of the 670!

    Nevertheless, I look forward to further discussion in the Cat Com, and hope 
that experience we all gain during the "testing" period in the initial months 
of implementation will help us develop recommendations for policy and/or best 
practices.

    Lenore

    Friends,

    I wrote a document to guide the LC Hebraica Cataloging Team during the 
first weeks of the experimentation period for adding nonroman NARS.  It can now 
be found on the wiki at

    http://rascat.pbwiki.com/Agenda-June-2008

    under "Authority Control" click on the "hebnrrefguide.doc" link.  This 
document shows some of our thinking about various possibilities for creating 
Hebrew references.

    Joan
