Map Catalogers -

We just received a new map of Hong Kong, fortunately printed out an
existing OCLC record, and as we were about to complete the map processing I
looked and realized the classification didn't seem right. God knows why
(maybe we have recently photographed too many maps with a G7940
classification) but I remembered G7940 and was surprised to see G7824! Has
a decision been made by LC G&M to reclassify. We have almost completed our
reclassification of our Russian collection, our German collection, have
just begun our Yugoslavian collection, and I "guess" Hong Kong is next?
