At the request of the British Library, the Coop Team reminds NACO
members to please adhere to the section of Z1 (the
yellow pages), 1XX, p. 1, relating to revision of name authority
records contributed by the British Library. In short, please remember to
inform the British Library, through the e-mail address listed
[log in to unmask], of changes made to headings (1XXs only)
contributed by the BL (040 $a Uk $b eng $c Uk)
The British Library are currently in the process of data migration
preparatory to the implementation of their new system. At the same time,
they are delinking their catalogue from the BLNAL and testing linkage
with the NACO Authority File.
Failure by NACO members to follow the procedures outlined in Z1 (the
yellow pages) make these actions on the part of the
BL even more difficult than can be exected of a "normal"
implementation.
