[Heb-NACO] Romanization survey report

Thu Mar 5 15:29:10 EST 2020

Hi all,

March is a little earlier than I usually plan the agenda for our upcoming AJL RAS Cataloging Committee but we already have requests for two important agenda items, each for 30 minutes.

1) Gary Strawn, developer of the Authority Toolkit and based at Northwestern will be giving us a demo on using the Toolkit; especially relevant as some of us will be participating in the
PCC Task Group on Linked Data Best Practices<https://www.loc.gov/aba/pcc/taskgroup/Linked-Data-Best-Practices-2018.pdf> pilot. There  is a move to add functionality related to this project into the Toolkit which would be a big help.... much faster than manually adding URI's to the relevant fields

2) Group discussions on the recent survey results which were disseminated on the use of non-Latin scripts in a linked data environment (currently Bibframe/Sinopia)

Please contact me if you have any other topics that we can try and fit into the remaining 30 minutes.

Thanks, Heidi

Great, thanks! I do agree that the conversation goes beyond catalogers.

Thanks,

Neil

Hi Neil.

Of course.

We can add it to the agenda list for the meeting of the Cataloging Committee but I think that it deserves a wider conversation and include public services staff.

Jasmin and I are both members of the LDRP (Linked Data for Prorduction) task group for Non-Latin scripts and are also part of the  Sinopia testing part of LD4P. We will be reporting about our experiences using Sinopia at our meeting.

Best, Heidi

Sure. Heidi, is there room to add the topic to the Cataloging Committee meeting agenda?

Very interesting results. I would want to see further discussion of this at the AJL conference.

Dear Heb-NACO Members,

Thank you for participating in the Linked Data for Production-2 Non-Latin Script Materials Affinity Group Survey on Romanization. The survey was designed to help make recommendations on the use of romanization in library catalogs within a linked data environment.

On behalf of the Group we would like to share the report summarizing survey results. This<https://docs.google.com/document/d/1HVmtQxXSE0aphipdACNTTck6rzT3gPEoqjzKynYgL78/edit?ts=5e4323ce> is the link to the report; a PDF version of the report is also attached.

If you have any questions, please send them to Xiaoli Li<mailto:xlli at ucdavis.edu> or Larisa Walsh<mailto:walshl at uchicago.edu>.

Thanks again, kol tuv, and a festive Purim to all,

Jasmin
