Suggested list of prefixes

Elizabeth Inkpen

Hi all,

I'm wondering if you wouldn't mind sharing with me what prefixes you're using in TNEW? We have to use the title field as part of the online DD process and i'd like the list to be as complete as possible.

Thanks!

Beth

    Thanks so much Sussan! I wonder if we'll get any saints signing up... Did you gather these from other institutions? I thought there would be a consolidated list for digital accessibility purposes somewhere but if there is it's eluding me!

    YW Elizabeth, 
    Not sure if having saints signing up is a good bad thing depending on how closely they adhere to the whole holy than thou scenario.

    I mostly got the list from our table and then I googled for good measure.  I've no idea if there is an official list somewhere I'm still working my way through how to operate Tessi been on the case for just over 6mths.  

    Enjoy the day (hump day an all)
