Due to technical problems at LC, the daily distribution of name authority records contributed by NACO participants and LC may be delayed. As a result, NACO catalogers may find that the records they contribute will take longer than 48 hours to appear in the copies of the national authority file that are maintained by the British Library, OCLC, and the Research Libraries Group. LC staff are working with the three copy-holding participants to find a temporary method for distributing the daily files. LC is currently assessing the technical problem that has caused the delay and we expect to have a permanent solution that will ensure the timely distribution of NACO records soon. We appreciate your patience as we work to resolve this with our NACO partners.
