Even though I only have a small synagogue library, I still answered the
survey, since my ILS does not accommodate non-Roman script, and I am dependent
on the Romanized records in OCLC (and thus LC). If you're in the same
situation I'm in and use worldcat.org to help you find records and catalog,
please answer the survey. The more LC knows we still need Romanized script for
Hebrew, the better.
Thanks,Emily

Dear colleagues,
The Non-Latin Script MaterialsAffinity Group of the Linked Data for
Production-2 project invites you toparticipate in an online survey on
romanization in library catalogs. Librarycatalogs include romanization to
support the use of resources in non-Latin scripts.As library systems become
more powerful in handling native scripts, and withthe move to linked data,
there is a desire to re-evaluate the current practiceregarding romanization.
Before any decisions can be made, libraries need toconsider the impact on
patrons, library staff, and systems used to manage thoseresources.
This survey will be used to help make recommendations on the useof romanization
in library catalogs within a linked data environment.
This online survey should take approximately 5-7 minutes tocomplete and will be
available at the following link until October 8
https://umich.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_0xmDmv1NgzCfBtP
Please forward the survey to anyone that you think might beinterested.
If you have questions about the survey, please contact Xiaoli Li
([email protected]) or Larisa Walsh ([email protected])
We are grateful for your participation and look forward to yourfeedback.
Kind regards,
On behalf of the Non-Latin Script Materials Affinity Group
