16. Possibility for CJK Collections? Currently no CJK support, but possible if there is sufficient demand Is there good use of this for East Asian libraries? Some issues might be: How CJK metadata will look like? Can they be like MARC (linking fields – roman and non-roman scripts)? OCLC plans to sell this overseas??
