We just wanted to briefly notify you of the number of authorities received this week now that Phase 2 is officially underway at Library of Congress: NAF = 69,099 total authorities; 62,611 had 040 $e rda - Our thought is that the 6,488 non-rda name authorities may have come from catalogers still doing AACR2 cataloging, rather than from the machine processing that Phase 2 is addressing. SAF = no RDA updates (which is expected) Nate Cothran Vice President, Automation Services 25 East 1700 South Provo, Utah 84606 Phone: +1.800.288.1265, ext. 697 Direct: +1.801.342.5697 nate@bslw.com <mailto:nate@bslw.com?subject=Automation%20Services%20-%20Inquiry> * www.bslw.com <http://www.bslw.com>
