Thanks for replying, but no, not what I'm looking for.
On what authority is the literal term "marcorg" itself deemed an
authority
term?
There is, for example, a MARC code list for terms, names and title
sources:
http://www.loc.gov/marc/relators/relasour.html
I can find no comparable list anywhere that lists the term "marcorg"
itself.
