Adam and others, OCLC staff will be beginning the pre-populating effort today. Following last weekend's software changes, we identified a problem that affected the updating of browse indexes. That problem needed to be fixed before we processed any significant number of records in order to avoid having to fix all the records later. The problem was resolved with a software install last night and all records with non-Latin references that were added since the weekend have been reindexed. So, we're now ready to begin the pre-populating. Glenn E.

Also, please note that the OCLC Connexion examples I showed are marked up examples - you won't actually find them in OCLC this way. I haven't seen any actual pre-populated records in OCLC yet, but Robert Bremer stated at ALA that they would start this process this week. For some examples of actual OCLC records that have had non-Latin data added, you can see some that I did: n 83742776 n 79003285 n 79126802 no2008102915 (but, OOPS!, I forgot to change the 008/29 to "b" and to add the 667 note "Non-Latin script references not evaluated". I will correct this once I can edit the record in OCLC again) Adam ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Adam L.
