I just leave both dashes at the end of the line.

Subject: [bksvol-discuss] double dashes instead of em dashes


Carrie,

What do you suggest we do if the double dashes are
split up at the end of a line? In the few cases where
that has occurred, I've changed them to em dashes; the
only other thing I could think of was to hit return in
front of the first one, but I thought that would be
way more annoying. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Or when  you read in Braile or audio does it not
matter if the dashes are split up?

Thanks.

Cindy

2. Please change em-dashes (�)  to space, hyphen,
hyphen, space ( -- ). I'm hoping that the cataloging
tool in the new website will eliminate this sort of
change. We'll see!
