[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Authority control, correction

[Duimovich, George]

Our cataloguers use the standard LoC authorities as well as a French language tool called RVM (1), plus a few other services too like the LC Cataloger's Desktop, etc. http://www.loc.gov/cds/desktop/features.html

In addition, we outsourced the creation of new authority records with one of the data service vendors, using a large sample of our bibliographic records to identify headings, etc..  After importing the new authorities, we used a script that ships with Evergreen to automatically create the links between bibs and authorities.

Subject: [OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] Authority control, correction

My prior post asking about authority control should have said that my consortium is considering migration. My library would still like to know what tools or subscriptions the libraries on this listserv are using for authority control.
