[Evergreen-catalogers] music copyright symbol?

[Galen Charlton]

Hi,

In addition to the Chrome extension that Monica mentioned, another approach
to consider on Windows is described here:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unicode_input#In_Microsoft_Windows

In particular, once I did the suggested change to the registry on a Windows
11 Pro computer, I was able to enter the symbol in both Chrome and Firefox
by holding down the Alt key, then hitting the plus sign followed by 2117 on
the numeric keyboard.

If your Windows computer is managed centrally, it may be necessary for IT
to push out the registry change.

Regards,

Galen
