BHL China update
Making an exception to bring in BHL China content being scanned to IA that do not have MARC records
Content will be accessible via a BHL China sub-collection
Metadata for content will be in Pinyin only for now...good to brainstorm ways to address this in the future, see link above
with the insertion of "English" as a language in IA dataset then OCR will run and pick up scientific names at least, users could come across these books via a taxonomic name search too
MCZ has Chinese catalogers, maybe we could make minimal English language records to help make the BHL China content more searchable; maybe we could contract out cataloging?; once it's in BHL, we could start to ask more pointed questions, identifying priority titles to catalog first; NYBG has a few Chinese lang works in BHL but these have English language MARC records
MBLWHOI 15 or so vols of a Japanese title (scanned in the wrong direction, English records, have been used by Japanese users) - AMNH has scanned same title
SIL has done a couple random volumes (scanned wrong direction, English records)
can BHL display C/J/K?
