Meri! FYI!! Note the new 667 "stuff" in 1. Bill -----Original Message----- From: Program for Cooperative Cataloging [mailto:[log in to unmask]]On Behalf Of Carolyn Sturtevant Sent: Tuesday, August 28, 2001 10:31 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: New 667 message; no 856 field Two items of interest to NACO contributors: 1. The July 23, 2001 release of the Revision of DCM Z1 (yellow pages), recently shipped to NACO contributors, includes a new example: 667 $a Formerly on undifferentiated name record: [LCCN of undifferentiated name record] When removing a name from an undifferentiated name record to create a new and unique record, please inlcude a 667 with the new message text and supply the LCCN of the record from which it was removed.. The yellow page updates were mailed in August to NACO contacts and to NACO funnel coordinators who in turn distribute them to their funnel members. If your institution has not yet received this update of the yellow pages, please email: [log in to unmask], or contact your NACO funnel coordinator. 2. The 856 field is not to be used in the name authority records by LC or NACO libraries. The 856 is being discussed in connection with the revision of the LC Guidelines Supplement to the MARC 21 Format for Authority Data (blue pages), but it is premature to say if/when the 856 will be authorized and specifications given for its use.
