| 520 | 3 | |a The technical challenges of developing software to convert Wade-Giles to Pinyin in bibliographic records that are not in Chinese are described. Systems of such transliteration for Chinese date from at least 1605, but one prevalent in the last hundred years or so in the US is the WG system. Recently the Library of Congress (LC) decided to discontinue use of the Wade-Giles (WG) and adopt the newer Pinyin form of transliteration, adopted by the People's Republic of China in the late 1950s. This meant conversion of Chinese records in the Online Computer Library Center (OCLC) authority file and OCLC bibliographic file to Pinyin. | |
