Collette, - Jeanette Elsner will be back next Tuesday. I have left a note for her to check the latest Books 24 x 7 package. There is a chance it or the later edition will be there. So hold those Tenterfield horses.
Glad you had a great break. I did a lot of cooking. A vegetarian in the family opens up a whole new wonderland of ingredients and recipes. Lemon coconut dahl was a great hit!

Adam Schiff quoted examples: > Read, Miss > Seuss, Dr. and > Dr. X > Miss Piggy The distinctions escape me, as it would most patrons I expect. Why is "Read" any more a surname than "Piggy"? And which would "Snoopy" be? Or "Seuss" more than "X"? Malcolm X is intered under "X" as surname: 100 1_ |a X, Malcolm, |d 1925-1965. Don't defend this by saying it's no worse than AACR2. RDA is supposed to be *better* than AACR2. While cross references might get one from one to the other in the catalogue, the form used does determine Cutter. __ __ J.
