SUMMARY OF DECISIONS, EDITORIAL MEETING NUMBER 8

February 20, 2008

Present from CPSO: M. Wewerka, R. Goudreau, D. Thompson, W. Robboy, R. Spalding

CLASSIFICATION

Changes were made as indicated on the approved list.

SUBJECT HEADINGS

Faoye (Senegal)

The proposal for this place indicates that it is a village. It should be established as a name heading, not as a subject heading. The proposal was not approved.

Scottish literature; Scottish poetry; etc.

These proposals are a re-instatement of headings cancelled in late 2006. The scope notes indicate a return to the policy of assigning headings under both the Scottish and English literature headings. The re-instatement of headings and resumption of the previous policy was the result of correspondence with the National Library of Scotland.
