The ALA Committee on Cataloging: Description and Access (CC:DA) has
approved the consolidated Greek romanization table of April 2010. This revised table
differs from the existing table only in the inclusion in the consolidated table of two
archaic letters and additional examples. The consolidated table also does not include
Coptic for which a separate table will be developed. The approved consolidated table has
replaced the existing table on the Cataloging and Acquisition Web site
(
http://www.loc.gov/catdir/cpso/roman.html) and will be published in the Summer 2010 issue
of Cataloging Service Bulletin. The Policy and Standards Division wishes to express its
gratitude to those who commented on the draft table.
May I ask you to post this announcement to the Greek list? Thanks.
