The Name Authority Cooperative Program — Current Spring Issue
In systems without authority control, it is up to each user to think of all possible variations of a name and search each one in an attempt to find everything they are looking for. - Lori Brennan, MLS
TitleTalk: The Name Authority Cooperative Program
Through this program, participants contribute authority records for personal names, corporate names, geographic names and uniform titles to the Library of Congress Name Authority File. NACO participants agree to follow a common set of standards and guidelines when creating or changing authority records in order to maintain the integrity of such a large shared file.

Latest Blog Entry
Let Collection Development keep you current …
This week our professionals are blogging about selections to make potty training less challenging, and titles of special interest to Jewish patrons.
This month, we sit down with Holly Black and Justine Larbalestier
Which is better, the zombie or the unicorn? In the Zombie vs. Unicorns anthology, due in September and edited by Holly Black and Justine Larbalestier (unicorn and zombie, respectively), strong arguments are made for both sides in the form of short stories. Half of the stories portray the strengths—for good and evil—of unicorns and half show the good side of zombies. Contributors include many best-selling teen authors, including Cassandra Clare, Libba Bray, Maureen Johnson, Meg Cabot, Scott Westerfeld and Margo Lanagan.
This anthology will have everyone asking: Team Zombie or Team Unicorn?
Browse our full collection of interviews with top authors, illustrators and musicians such as Meg Cabot, Christopher Moore, Richelle Mead, Allan Stratton and many more.
