>Gabe and I have a question regarding the use of French/diacritics in the
>sponsor and contributor fields.

>We are working with several provincial and federal government partners,
>which in Canada means the necessity for everything being in both English
>and French. For the most part the hurdle we have faced is with the RCS.
>While it seems that the French accents make it through, specifically,
>the use of the apostrophe leads to the field being truncated once it
>reaches the metaform. _See attached picture_.

>The current partner related to this issue is:
>/*sponsor/contributor=Canadian Association of University
>Teachers/Association Canadienne des professeures et professeurs
>d'université*/
>
>Which is shortened to: Canadian Association of University
>Teachers/Association Canadienne des professeures et professeurs d
>
>Is there anything that can be done during the RCS or within biblio to
>allow for these characters to pass through? The partners, being
>government agencies, cannot budge on the visibility of both english and
>french.
