Authorities in a Non-MARC Environment:

In April 2013, the "Report for PCC Task Group on the Creation and Function
of Name Authorities in a Non-MARC Environment
<http://www.loc.gov/aba/pcc/rda/RDA%20Task%20groups%20and%20charges/ReportPC
CTGonNameAuthInA_NonMARC_Environ_FinalReport.pdf> " was finalized.

As part of the follow-up to this report, the PCC Policy Committee invited
the PCC community at large to address the challenges presented in the
report, including:

How to relate external named entity identifiers and information to library
authority data;

How to relate external named entity identifiers and information to library
bibliographic data;

How to structure library authority data to optimize its utility in a linked
data environment as well as in library systems. 

Individuals and groups were challenged to develop their ideas around these
issues and share them with the PCC Policy Committee. The presentations given
during this panel discussion evolved from projects designed to address these
challenges.

Panel members: 

Jennifer Liss and Carl Horne (Indiana University)

Christine Eslao (Harvard)

Philip E. Schreur (Stanford)

Sincerely,

Les Hawkins
