I agree
I agree with Pete Wilson, for the records; some things in cataloging
serials start to be so instinctive after all these years (!) that they
just ARE.  Certainly the spelling out or abbreviation to an acronym of
someone's name seems to me to be important enough to do something about. But th
en I understand that the adding or deleting of "Royal" to a British
association's name is often ignored ... but to the Brits this is cer-
tainly a big enough deal, meaning royal patronage is given or retracted,
that I think it should be considered important.  What do the rest of you
do?
