behalf of the Swift-BAT team, and

G. Di Cocco, F. Fuschino, M. Galli, C. Labanti, and M. Marisaldi,
on behalf of the AGILE MCAL team, report:

The short-duration, hard GRB 120519A has been observed by Fermi (GBM 
trigger 359140696), Konus-Wind, Swift (BAT),  MESSENGER (GRNS), INTEGRAL 
(SPI-ACS), Suzaku (WAM), and AGILE (MCAL), so far, at about 62295 s UT 
(17:18:15). The burst was outside the coded field of
view of the BAT.

We have triangulated it to a preliminary, 3 sigma error box whose
coordinates are:
  ---------------------------------------------
   RA(2000), deg                 Dec(2000), deg
  ---------------------------------------------
  Center:
   178.366 (11h 53m 28s) +22.407 (+22d 24' 24")
  Corners:
   179.899 (11h 59m 36s) +24.184 (+24d 11' 02")
   178.690 (11h 54m 46s) +23.008 (+23d 00' 31")
   176.909 (11h 47m 38s) +20.581 (+20d 34' 53")
   178.049 (11h 52m 12s) +21.803 (+21d 48' 09")
  ---------------------------------------------
The error box area is 0.60 sq. deg, and its maximum
dimension is 4.5 deg.

This box may be improved.

The time history and spectrum will be given in a forthcoming GCN Circular.
