Proposal for Revision of Uighur Romanization Table

by Johnson, Bruce

Proposal for Revision of Uighur Romanization Table 11/05/14 A proposal to revise the Uighur romanization table has been submitted to the Library of Congress and is available for review at Uighur<http://www.loc.gov/catdir/cpso/romanization/uighur-rev.pdf> < http://www.loc.gov/catdir/cpso/romanization/uighur-rev.pdf > [PDF, 207 KB]. The objectives of this revision are fourfold: * 1. The existing rules were occasionally confusing and conflicting (e.g. Rule 2) and hampered reversibility (Rules 2, 6, 7, and 9). * 2. The letters "i" and "y" are distinct in Uighur and should be distinct in Romanization. * 3. Medial hamzah should be romanized ' (alif). * 4. The new table is now almost completely reversible. Comments on this proposed romanization table may be sent to Bruce Johnson, Policy and Standards Division (bjoh(a)loc.gov<mailto:bjoh@loc.gov>) by February 5, 2015. Bruce Chr.

Millennial librarians in academic library special collections – we want to hear from you

by KALAMOS BOOKS

---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Coonin, Bryna <COONINB(a)ecu.edu> Date: Tue, Nov 4, 2014 at 5:56 PM In the Fall of 2013 we requested participation for a study of academic librarians concerning the skills, knowledge, abilities or dispositions that are most respected and/or admired by academic librarians, and how these qualities might, or might not, be related to generational membership, career length, broad job function, and institutional classification. The article reporting the results of that study, “Cross-Generational Valuing Among Peer Academic Librarians” has been accepted and is scheduled for publication in *College & Research Libraries *in July 2015. The pre-print, dated June 8, 2014, is currently available in the pre-print section of the *College & Research Libraries* web site. While our response rate from younger academic librarians was sufficient for the study, it was quite low in comparison to the response from older academic librarians. We believe that, in order to gain a clearer understanding of the issue of cross-generational valuing in an academic library setting, we need to hear from more Millennial librarians. We proposed this new study to ACRL for 2015 conference and it has been accepted for presentation. *So we are asking your assistance. If you are an academic librarian under the age of 32 w**e’d like to invite you to participate by taking this revised eight-question survey that should take under 10 minutes to complete. * *SURVEY URL: *https://ecu.az1.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_4OCVMQgaoM1Zpjv If the URL does not open from within your e-mail please cut and paste to your browser. No personal identifying information will be collected. The aggregated results of survey responses will be compiled and shared only in summary form. *The survey will close on November 25, 2014.* Thank you in advance for your consideration of this invitation, Bryna Coonin Professor, Academic Library Services East Carolina University cooninb(a)ecu.edu Gail Munde, PhD Associate Professor, College of Education East Carolina University mundeg(a)ecu.edu
