>> Hello,
>>
>> We are hoping to create some predefined groups in
>> WorldCat Collection Analysis representing subsets
>> of WorldCat which contain the majority of
>> materials relevant to a particular Area Studies or
>> Interdisciplinary Studies subject area and we
>> could use your help. Based on some preliminary
>> research of library web pages, I was able to cull
>> together some “skeletons” of call number
>> ranges associated with particular Area Studies or
>> Interdisciplinary Studies subject areas.
>>
>> Now I would like to run these by experts in the
>> field to determine if these ranges are accurate
>> and sufficient. If you feel comfortable lending
>> your expertise by reviewing these ranges and
>> making recommendations as you see fit, we would be
>> very grateful for your guidance. Or, if you know
>> of a colleague who is an expert in one of these
>> fields and might be willing to advise us, please
>> forward this request to him or her. We hope to
>> collect all feedback by August 22nd.
>>
>> Finally, if we have overlooked other areas of
>> study that you feel ought to be represented on
>> this list, please let me know.
>>
>> Thank you for considering this request.
>>
>> Best.
