Hello,

Tentative LCSH list 2412a is now available at this link: Tentative Monthly List 12 LCSH 2 (February 13, 2025). The focus is on updating headings with "Mexico, Gulf of" to "America, Gulf of"

The availability of this list was announced on the Library of Congress Volcabularies Announcements this morning. Comments are due to LC by Tuesday, February 18, 2025.

Please post any comments you have on this list by the end of the day today. I will share SAC comments to LC at 8 PM ET/5 PM PT.

Thank you,

Hi all,

Does SAC want to try and come up with a statement? I feel like we should (though I know it's incredibly fast turnaround).

Note to the community that SAC members are working on a statement. 

Thanks to Rebecca for posting so quickly, and Allison for making the suggestion.
