Hi Heidi, I’m by no means a rare book cataloger but I have taken two Rare Book School classes on cataloging. I checked the Descriptive Cataloging of Rare Materials (Books) 4D2.2 for some guidance. It wasn’t real helpful. I personally wouldn’t add a parallel Romanized field for the 500. It’ll be interesting to hear what our rare book colleagues say.

May I ask, in the 264 – if all we have is the chronogram – do we use only the Gregorian date in both the 264 and its 880 field? Thanks, Haim From: Heb-naco <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> On Behalf Of Heidi G Lerner via Heb-naco Sent: Tuesday, August 25, 2020 3:29 PM To: DCRM Users' Group <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>>; [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: Re: [Heb-NACO] questions on chronograms in Hebrew script Dear rare book catalogers, I am for the first time providing a chronogram for a pre-1800 Hebrew book in a note field in both transliteration and native script: We do not have any official guidelines in current Hebraica RDA cataloging documentation for recreating a chronogram from a resource so I am emulating how it would be recorded in Bibliography of the Hebrew book. For the work that I am currently working on I have done it in the following manner: 500 Date of publication derived from chronogram: ע’ל’ מ’ש’פ’ט’ו’ ישב 500 Date of publication derived from chronogram: ʻA.l' m'i'sh'p'a'ṭo yeshev I would greatly appreciate any feedback from experienced rare book catalogers.
