Korean Librarian Halts Library of Congress Move on Dokdo
The U.S. Library of Congress has postponed a meeting planned for Wednesday to change the subject heading for Korea’s Dokdo islets from “Tok Island (Korea)” to “Liancourt Rocks,” an old international moniker, and file it under “Islands of the Sea of Japan,” the body of water Koreans know as the East Sea. The postponement owes much to the efforts of a Korean librarian in Canada.
