Re: Library terminology

Karen,
Yes, I think this will be very helpful.  As far as I know, there are core Chinese librarians who have been following your every Work.  If this becomes a publicly-editable in the future there could be other language translations for the terminologies. Even Taiwan and Mainland China have very different labels for those terms.

I also just edited your wiki page on library data, for the links to the FRSAD official site.

While working with folks on the Open Library project I started an
informal list of cataloging terminology that needed explaining.

It's no longer being linked to on the OL site so it may disappear at
some point. The question is: does anyone think it would be useful to
copy this to the LLD wiki and open it for maintenance? (I'm thinking
that the public wiki would allow for the widest participation.) (Note:
I already see one entry that I got wrong -- thus the need to make this
publicly editable!)
