Here's a reminder of special importance to all NACO contributors with hyphenated MARC identification codes, especially NACO coordinators and funnel coordinators: "It is written: It's easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for a NAR with a hyphenated MARC code to be loaded into the name authority file, IF the hyphenated code is not registered with the folks in the Coop Team and the LC Network Development Office." Potentially, library with code XyZ may have sub-units wanting to join NACO, and we need to have the codes of any sub-units registered in order to receive and count their NARs. We could use: XyZ for XYZ University Main Library, our traditional NACO partners XyZ-GHS for XYZ Granola Health Sciences Library, who are doing regular NACO work, not in a funnel, but under a different code XyZ-KMu the XYZ School of Kazoo Music as a member of NACO Music XyZ-FP the XYZ School of Finger Painting as a member of ArtNACO If we receive a record with XyZ-CB, but don't have the code registered, we may lose out on the records for the XYZ University Comic Book Cataloging Unit! Please remember to let us know if you intend to use a new code. Please let us know the name of the new unit (XYZ University Granola Health Sciences Library) and either provide the new code being used (XyZ-GHS) or request a new code if you need one. The name of your special cataloging unit is needed for LC to create the appropriate new hyphenated code. We welcome all our new NACO funnel members and contributors from special libraries within NACO institutions, and want to be able to capture and include all your records. Thanks for your help.
