Monday would be my preference since I am leaving Tuesday afternoon. Alternatively how about a breakfast meeting Monday or Tuesday morning?

Subject: Re: LC doc on Hebrew references in NARS


As Lenore says, a serious discussion of these topics can go on for weeks. Yossi has just suggested to me that the meeting of the Cataloging Committee (no matter how far into the night it goes!) will not be long enough for us to really sink our teeth just into the various methods of approach. (Yossi's words were more along the lines of, "I've read the first page of the document and I have several critici... er, ques... er..."

Perhaps we could schedule an extra meeting to go into some depth with this subject by itself. With the permission of Rachel Simon, my roommate, I would be glad to offer my/our hotel room as a venue on Monday or Tuesday night, if we can't find someplace more spacious.

Do any of you think this is a good idea?

Dear Colleagues,

I highly recommend that when we discuss this topic, we use Joan's excellent examples document/discussion paper as a guide.

Joan didn't mention in her messages, but LC's Hebraica cataloging staff devoted a number of meetings to these issues, and managed only to reach consensus on the format of the 670!

Nevertheless, I look forward to further discussion in the Cat Com, and hope that experience we all gain during the "testing" period in the initial months of implementation will help us develop recommendations for policy and/or best practices.

Friends,

I wrote a document to guide the LC Hebraica Cataloging Team during the first weeks of the experimentation period for adding nonroman NARS. It can now be found on the wiki at

under "Authority Control" click on the "hebnrrefguide.doc" link. This document shows some of our thinking about various possibilities for creating Hebrew references.

Joan
