[Heb-NACO] correct transcription for "alif" and "ayin" diacritics

Hi all,


I have received a few reports that some catalogers creating or modifying Hebraica bibliographic and authority records have been using keyboard apostrophe characters in lieu of the diacritics for alef and ayin.


The easiest way to prevent this while working in OCLC is to use the diacritics table under the Edit tab. You can set a particular language to display only those diacritics and special characters to that language.


Thank you in advance for heeding this request.


Sincerely, Heidi
