Dear all,


It was very nice to see a number of you at the LA conference. As we were talking, OCLC wants to broaden its bibliographic merging service. We convened with Nathan Putnam that a Hebraica Merging Group will be created. Whoever wants to participate in it will learn by using OCLC’s self-paced online materials, after which I will review some of your records. This is not a very long process, once you understand the basics.


Merging bibs is a great contribution to the database (and to everybody’s sanity!), but it is also very rewarding, as it results in clearer searches and richer records.


For now, if you are interested or have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact me at nfrau at umd.edu<mailto:nfrau at umd.edu>


Kol tuv,



Neil
