Arsenault, Clement Chinese Efficiency Improvement Information Retrieval Library Catalogs Mathematical Formulas Online Catalogs Phonology Romanization Discusses the adoption of the pinyin Romanization standard over Wade-Giles and considers the impact on retrieval in online library catalogs. Describes an investigation that tested three factors that could influence retrieval efficiency: the number of usable syllables, the average number of letters per syllable, and users' familiarity with the Romanization method.
