[Heb-NACO] Catalog committee meeting and OCLC update meeting at AJL conference

[Heidi G Lerner]

Hi Haim,


That is a very good idea.


Years ago I developed a program for training faculty and students in the finer points of ALA/LC romanization. It was later published in Higher Hebrew Education.


It might work as a starting point.


Thanks, Heidi

I was wondering if it would be worthwhile to write a Hebrew grammar work for catalogers. A comprehensive text that addresses not just grammar rules, but also how the Hebrew grammar rules work in conjunction with cataloging rules. This would complement the HCM.

Dear cataloging colleagues,



The AJL RAS Cataloging Committee meeting at the upcoming AJL conference is scheduled for Monday, June 18th, from 10:30 – 12:00.

What items would you like to see included on the agenda for this meeting?



I have three or four items so far, based on discussions we have had this past year:

  *   I would like to hold a vote on the authorization of the use for Rav Milim or Morfix for the romanization of Hebrew words not found in Even-Shoshan.



  *   We have had discussions on the question of romanization of a vocalized Tetragrammaton, of the word דיט, and ברסלב, but have not come to a resolution to the questions.



  *   We need to restart the process of reading through the updated RDA instructions and see if any changes need to be made to our cataloging policies as given in our Hebraica cataloging manual.



Any comments, suggestions, additions, etc. are most welcome!



The OCLC Update meeting is scheduled for Monday, June 18th, from 9:00-10:30.  Nathan Putnam, Director of Metadata Quality at OCLC, will be giving the OCLC Update presentation.  Are there any specific issues, questions, problems, etc. that you would like to have him address in his presentation?  Please let me know, and I will pass that information on to him.



Thank you,

Jerry Anne
