We'll be glad to present our section's interim guidelines for nonroman references in NARs, as suggested by Nancy. It doesn't seem likely that the Policy & Standards Office will be ready to present anything similar before AJL. As for standardizing practice for nonroman fields in bibliographic records ... is there really a big desire for this? Our hope has always been, since we heard that nonroman references would become available in authority records, it would be no longer necessary to put them in bibliographic records. That hasn't happened yet, but aren't we still hoping it will?
Joan >>> Jasmin Nof <j...@umd.edu> 6/17/2009 1:28 PM >>> Hi all, it's time to pull together the agenda for our 2009 committee meeting so I'm putting out a call for discussion items. Our meeting times are scheduled for Sun. 3pm-5:30pm and, if needed, Mon. at 9:30pm-11pm. Please let me know what topics you'd like to cover. Also, I don't think we'll need a computer with internet access for the purpose of our meeting(s), but let me know if the subject you'd like to discuss does require such equipment. As a friendly reminder, the OCLC users' meeting is Wed. at 8:15am. Shoshanah sent an email earlier this week asking if we had any particular issues we'd like David to discuss. Please contact her (or me) so we can convey your ideas to David. Thanks and looking forward to seeing you again soon, Jasmin Chair, RAS Cataloging Committee -- Jasmin Nof Judaica and Hebraica Cataloger 2200 McKeldin Library University of Maryland College Park, MD 20742 301-405-9337 j...@umd.edu
