[Heb-NACO] help with subject heading proposal

[Kuperman, Aaron]

1.  Why not propose:  Jewish fraternal organizations--United States with a 4xx from Jewish American fraternal organizations. If PSD doesn’t like the proposal, then they can go with the 4xx.  Since we precoordinate for all other ethnic fraternal organizations, we wouldn’t postcoordinate only for Jews.

2. Do you have more than three of them discussed in the work since if not one would just list the 610s, rather than use a 650?

Subject: [Heb-NACO] help with subject heading proposal


Hi,
I need some help figuring out how to  formulate a subject heading for Jewish fraternal societies.

We have a patten for:


African American fraternal organizations



Polish American fraternal organizations



Russian American fraternal organizations



Scottish American fraternal organizations


However we cannot use the string Jewish American.

I can only come up with something like combining

Jews|zUnited States|xSocieties, etc.

Fraternal organizations|zUnited States.

There are so many historically as well as currently I would like to try one way to have one unique subject heading.

Any ideas will be interested.

Thanks, Heidi
