I just wanted to alert any and all catalogers or folks doing map
cataloging of this recent additions to the LCAF of form/genre headings.
We are actively using f/g headings in our cataloging here at Penn State,
I know not everyone agrees with their being useful or needed, but they
are there for us to use. So, here's the latest NEW f/g headings via the
Library of Congress.

My thanks go to my colleague, John Attig, for compiling these and
sharing with me and my team!

Paige
