...

• The practice of creating local series authority records (SARs) will be discontinued.
  • Instead, we will rely on national-level SARs, and we will contribute national-level SARs for series standing orders and series standing orders on approvals.
  • All monographs that are published as part of numbered series will include the transcribed form of the series title as designated by the publisher, appearing in the 490 field.
  • Catalog records for monographs that are acquired through a series standing order will additionally include a controlled series tracing through the 830 field.
  • The absence of a series authority record or absence of an active series standing order signifies ‘Series Record Not Kept’ (SRNK) status.
• The practice of staff routinely pulling monographs out of the Acquisitions workflows to elicit a bibliographer’s series standing order decision will be discontinued.
  • Bibliographers should continue to communicate interest in establishing a series standing order or series standing order on approval when identified through scoping materials or other means employed to learn of new and important numbered series.

I think we need to give figures and information on which local authority records were migrated to Alma, and which were not.(ICQ)

It would be good to explain that the Judaica records that were migrated are part of a project to bring them into NACO over time. (ICQ)

We should also reiterate the information from MSWG that we do not want folks to create new local authority records. (ICQ)
