[Cohsl-list] Tod-Oirat-Old Kalmyk Romanization Table Approved

Tod-Oirat-Old Kalmyk 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: Asian and African Materials (CC:AAM) recently received and reviewed a proposal for new Tod-Oirat-Old Kalmyk romanization table. The table has subsequently been approved. The Tod-Oirat-Old Kalmyk romanization table is now available for downloading from the ALA-LC Romanization Tables webpage<http://www.loc.gov/catdir/cpso/roman.html>ml>.
