[KS] Re: "author/title index"

[Hyonggun Choi]

Dear Ms. Choe:

I would like to offer my congratulation for your great work for Hanguk
Yoktae Munjip Chongso. It should be noted that the greatest difficulty in
using those materials is caused by non-existing index for individual access
by titles and author name. Your work certainly will be appreciated for long
by scholars in Korean studies!!
