El-Sherbini, Magda2025-09-242025-09-242016https://repository.ifla.org/handle/20.500.14598/6206Linking non-Roman subject terms with LCSH terms through the use of FAST terms opens new possibilities for improving resource discoverability and access to non-Roman script collections. My discussion will be focused on how the MARC21 record can be utilized to display non-Roman script subject terms in the ILS. To maximize discoverability of materials, non-Roman terms are linked to FAST subject terms. I will describe the experience of subject searching of non-Roman script materials using either the FAST English language terms, or their equivalents in non-Roman script languages. The Arabic language subject terms will be used as a prototype that can be applied as best practice for other non-Roman languages.engAttribution 4.0 Internationalhttps://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/Articlehttps://2016.ifla.org/programme/satellite-meetingsopen accessLinking fieldsnon-Roman languagessubject headingsFAST
