<p class="MsoNormal">I was asked a while ago by the UK Historic Libraries Forum to write a guide to Hebrew cataloguing for those who don’t know Hebrew, on the lines of their Latin one
<a href="http://www.historiclibrariesforum.org.uk/hlf/Guides/GuideLatin.pdf">http://www.historiclibrariesforum.org.uk/hlf/Guides/GuideLatin.pdf</a> This is obviously quite problematic for Hebrew because of the lack of vocalisation, but I have done my best to
write something intelligible! As many of you are far more knowledgeable about Hebrew cataloguing than I am, I’d be very grateful if anyone has the time to look at the draft and let me have any comments or corrections. If so, please let me know off list and
I’ll send it to you.<o:p></o:p></p>
