Dear NACO/SACO participant:
Is your library engaged in digital library projects that create non-MARC
metadata? Have you considered contributing authority records through
NACO/SACO for names, subjects, etc. that you have encountered through
those digital projects?
As part of our Charge, the PCC Advisory Committee on Initiatives would
like to hear your thoughts about the feasibility of including NACO/SACO
work into non-MARC digital projects. What barriers do you see to this
in general, or at your institution? What ideas do you have for
potential solutions to these barriers?
If you've had experience with NACO/SACO for non-MARC digital projects,
or have had any thoughts about it, we'd like to talk with you. If you
would be willing to answer a few questions and share your ideas with one
of us over the phone, please reply to this email (by responding to
[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> by Oct 12)
and indicate what might be a good time for one of us to give you a call.
Thank you!
Matthew Beacom, Marty Kurth, Jennifer Bowen, and John Riemer on
behalf of the PCC Advisory Committee on Initiatives
