<p class=MsoNormal>Changes to <b>0G2.2</b> and <b>G4.2</b> are proposed, with
re-wording based on DCRM-L discussion: <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><b>0G2.2. Letters i/j and u/v.</b> If the rules for capitalization
require converting the letters <b>i</b>/<b>j</b> or <b>u</b>/<b>v</b> to
uppercase or lowercase, follow the pattern of usage in the publication being

<p class=MsoNormal><b>0G2.2. Letters i/j and u/v.</b> If the rules for
capitalization require converting the letters <b>I</b> or <b>V</b> to
lowercase, or <b>i</b>, <b>j</b>, <b>u</b>, or <b>v</b> to uppercase, follow
the pattern of usage in the text to determine which letter form to use....<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>------------------<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Existing:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><b>G4.2. Transcription.</b> As instructed in rule 0G2.2,
when the rules for capitalization require converting <b>i</b>/<b>j</b> or <b>u</b>/<b>v</b>
to uppercase or lowercase,* the cataloger is to follow the pattern of usage in
the publication being described.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>*An uppercase <b>J </b>or <b>U</b> in the source signals a
modern distribution, in which <b>i</b> and <b>j</b> are functioning as separate
letters, as are <b>u</b> and <b>v</b>, requiring no special consideration while
converting case.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><b>G4.2. Transcription.</b> As instructed in 0G2.2, when the

<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>*An uppercase <b>J</b> in the source signals that <b>i</b>
and <b>j</b> are functioning as separate letters, requiring no special
consideration while converting case. Likewise, an uppercase <b>U</b> in the
source signals that <b>u</b> and <b>v</b> are functioning as separate letters,
requiring no special consideration while converting case.<o:p></o:p></p>
