Rendall Subject: Re: [nonenglishaccess] Call for volunteers: ALCTS Non-English Task Force on Romanization Colleagues, The ALA Connects open discussion forum on romanization is now up and running. This is intended to be a general forum for discussion of issues related to romanization, and the Working Group also plans to use it to collect information and request feedback on its work as it prepares its report. Thank you again for expressing an interest in this project, and I hope that all of you will consider joining and participating in the forum. The forum's page is at http://connect.ala.org/node/76105. To see existing posts and to post your own messages, you will need to (1.) log in to ALA Connect, and then (2.) join this group. ALA members can log in using their ALA username and password; non-members will need to set up a username and password for ALA Connect. Once you're logged in, you should see a button saying "JOIN" on the right-hand side of the page. Clicking on that will send me an e-mail message, and as soon as I see that I will add you as a member. Contact me directly at this e-mail address if you run into any problems. Once you've joined, please feel free to start your own discussion threads on whatever romanization issues are of most interest to you. (To keep up to date, click on "Email preferences" and select "enabled" so you will be notified when a new post or comment is added.) While the Working Group is planning to conduct most of its own substantive discussions here so that you will be able to comment, we'll be delighted if this group also takes on a life of its own. Thank you, Robert Rendall Chair, ALCTS Non-English Access Working Group on Romanization MAGDA EL-SHERBINI wrote: Dear colleagues, The discussion list is created and to be a member you should use the URL I sent before and you could request a membership in the community. I will get an email message and I will approve your membership. Right now, I am requesting that you hold on your request because I changed the administrator of this list to the chair of the WG. Once this change is made, I will send the information for you to join. Thank you, Magda On Tue, Jun 16, 2009 at 8:50 PM, MAGDA EL-SHERBINI <el-sherbin...@osu.edu> wrote: Dear Colleagues, I regret to inform you that you were not selected to serve on the WG for processing of Recommendation 10 of the Non-English TF Report. I received a large number of volunteers and the selection process was very difficult. All of you have many qualifications to offer to this Working Group. I created a discussion list on the ALA Connect for the Working Group and all others who have volunteered. This is intended to create a link between your thoughts and ideas and the working group. So please, I encourage you to subscribe to the Recommendation 10 discussion list and participate in the discussion.
