Join the LACONI Technical Services Section to learn all about Authority Control Records with the Library of Congress
What is "Authority Control" in cataloging? Why is it essential for organizing bibliographic data and providing consistent access in library catalogs? What are the different types of authority records? What's in an authority record? What is NACO? What does it take to become a NACO contributing library?
Please join Melanie Polutta and Tricia Mackenzie, who are the Cataloging Policy Specialists for the Library of Congress to gain answers to these questions and beyond. Whether you are a seasoned cataloger who needs a refresher or a new cataloger who wishes to learn more about this topic, you will find this informative session helpful and beneficial to your day-to-day work.
