  • End-Of-Line Hyphenation of Chemical Names (IUPAC Provisional
    Pure Appl. Chem. 2020; aop IUPAC Recommendations Albert J. Dijkstra*, Karl-Heinz Hellwich, Richard M. Hartshorn, Jan Reedijk and Erik Szabó End-of-line hyphenation of chemical names (IUPAC Provisional Recommendations) https://doi.org/10.1515/pac-2019-1005 Received October 16, 2019; accepted January 21, 2020 Abstract: Chemical names and in particular systematic chemical names can be so long that, when a manu- script is printed, they have to be hyphenated/divided at the end of a line. Many systematic names already contain hyphens, but sometimes not in a suitable division position. In some cases, using these hyphens as end-of-line divisions can lead to illogical divisions in print, as can also happen when hyphens are added arbi- trarily without considering the ‘chemical’ context. The present document provides recommendations and guidelines for authors of chemical manuscripts, their publishers and editors, on where to divide chemical names at the end of a line and instructions on how to avoid these names being divided at illogical places as often suggested by desk dictionaries. Instead, readability and chemical sense should prevail when authors insert optional hyphens. Accordingly, the software used to convert electronic manuscripts to print can now be programmed to avoid illogical end-of-line hyphenation and thereby save the author much time and annoy- ance when proofreading. The recommendations also allow readers of the printed article to determine which end-of-line hyphens are an integral part of the name and should not be deleted when ‘undividing’ the name. These recommendations may also prove useful in languages other than English.

  • Assessment of Options for Handling Full Unicode Character Encodings in MARC21 a Study for the Library of Congress
    1 Assessment of Options for Handling Full Unicode Character Encodings in MARC21 A Study for the Library of Congress Part 1: New Scripts Jack Cain Senior Consultant Trylus Computing, Toronto 1 Purpose This assessment intends to study the issues and make recommendations on the possible expansion of the character set repertoire for bibliographic records in MARC21 format. 1.1 “Encoding Scheme” vs. “Repertoire” An encoding scheme contains codes by which characters are represented in computer memory. These codes are organized according to a certain methodology called an encoding scheme. The list of all characters so encoded is referred to as the “repertoire” of characters in the given encoding schemes. For example, ASCII is one encoding scheme, perhaps the one best known to the average non-technical person in North America. “A”, “B”, & “C” are three characters in the repertoire of this encoding scheme. These three characters are assigned encodings 41, 42 & 43 in ASCII (expressed here in hexadecimal). 1.2 MARC8 "MARC8" is the term commonly used to refer both to the encoding scheme and its repertoire as used in MARC records up to 1998. The ‘8’ refers to the fact that, unlike Unicode which is a multi-byte per character code set, the MARC8 encoding scheme is principally made up of multiple one byte tables in which each character is encoded using a single 8 bit byte. (It also includes the EACC set which actually uses fixed length 3 bytes per character.) (For details on MARC8 and its specifications see: http://www.loc.gov/marc/.) MARC8 was introduced around 1968 and was initially limited to essentially Latin script only.

  • I. In-Text Citations in Turabian-Style Papers, Superscript Numbers
    MAX Center Writing References Turabian Style I. In-Text Citations In Turabian-style papers, superscript numbers (1) are placed at the end of sentences in which a source is used (quotations, paraphrasing, or any other attribution). The source of the citation is then cited in a correspondingly numbered note which provides extended information. These notes can appear as footnotes at the bottom of the page or endnotes in a list at the end of the paper. In most cases, you will also list sources at the end of the paper in a bibliography. The format for these notes is different from the format of bibliography entries. Superscript numbers should appear at the end of the cited material after all punctuation marks, except when the note refers to material before a dash, in which case the superscript should appear after it. Don’t use more than one reference number at a time if a sentence cites multiple sources—instead, use one number and include all citations in a single note. II. Foot- and Endnotes If you choose to use Endnotes instead of footnotes, they should appear on a separate page entitled Notes. Both footnotes and endnotes are formatted as follows: 1. Single Author or Editor Note Number. Author’s (or Editor’s) First and Last Names, Title of Book: Subtitle of Book (Place of Publication: Publisher’s Name, Date of Publication), XX-XX. 2. Multiple Authors Note Number. Author #1’s First and Last Names and Author #2’s First and Last Names, Title of Book: Subtitle of Book (Place of Publication: Publisher’s Name, Date of Publication), XX-XX.

  • The 2020 Los Angeles Printers Fair
    The 2020 Los Angeles Printers Fair To say 2020 has been an unusual year is certainly the grand understatement of the year! As much as all of us have been forced to live inside our boxes, the pandemic has really been an opportunity to think outside the comforts of our boxes and explore new ideas. Given that restrictions are still in place for us at the International Printing Museum, we have had to rethink how to connect with our community of creative souls who normally come together each fall for the Printers Fair. Like so many other events in our lives right now, this has meant creating a virtual experience but with a twist. So, welcome to the 12th annual 2020 VIRTUAL LOS ANGELES PRINTERS FAIR at the International Printing Museum (or in your living room or studio or apartment...). The Printing Museum team has worked hard to create an exceptional online event that captures some of the magic of visiting the Printers Fair in person; we are bringing our big tent of creative artisans to your screen this year. The Virtual Los Angeles Printers Fair is a wonderful opportunity to meet book artists, letterpress printers and printmakers and peruse their work. The beauty of this world known as Book Arts is that this is already a group thinking and working outside the modern boxes of our world, using traditional machines and methods but typically with a very modern twist. We have set up the PrintersFair.com website to give you as much of an opportunity to meet these creatives, see their shops and learn about their work.
