Look on the web at http://www.loc.gov/rr/european/lccyr.html
(the Library of Congress's own site) or
http://libweb.princeton.edu/katmandu/sgman/sltrans.html
(Princeton University Library).
Basically, Bulgarian is treated like Russian except for the back-jer
letter, which is written as U with a short mark on top;
but Serbo-Croatian is written according to the Latin alphabet
as used in Croatia (and Bosnia, and somewhat in Serbia too),
so that requires diacritic marks on some instances of the
letters c, d, s, and z.
