[Cohsl-list] Rusyn / Carpatho-Rusyn Romanization Table Approved

Rusyn / Carpatho-Rusyn Romanization Table Approved The ALA-LC Romanization tables are developed jointly by the Library of Congress (LC) and the American Library Association (ALA). Romanization schemes enable the cataloging of foreign language materials. Romanized cataloging in turn supports circulation, acquisitions, serials check-in, shelflisting, shelving, and reference, particularly in library catalogs that are unable to display non-roman alphabet information. The ALCTS Committee on Cataloging: Description and Access (CC:DA) recently received and reviewed a proposal for new Rusyn / Carpatho-Rusyn romanization table. The table has subsequently been approved. The Rusyn / Carpatho-Rusyn romanization table is now available for downloading from the ALA-LC Romanization Tables webpage.<http://www.loc.gov/catdir/cpso/roman.html>ml>. http://www.loc.gov/catdir/cpso/roman.html Please direct any questions about romanization tables to Bruce Johnson, Policy and Standards Division (bjoh@loc.gov<mailto:bjoh@loc.gov>).
