current plan, which is subject to modification, is to disable the ability
for NACO users to add and/or update authority records using the OCLC
Connexion interfaces starting at approximately 9 p.m. Eastern Daylight
Time (EDT) on March 23. <br>

During that time, OCLC will also suspend the loading of distributed
authority records from the Library of Congress, but will continue to
retrieve contribution files.<br>

During the outage, users will continue to be able to:
<ul>
<li>search and browse the LC Names and Subjects authority files,
<li>search and browse the LC Names and Subjects history files,
<li>create new authority records,
<li>edit existing authority records,
<li>lock existing authority records,

Should a user attempt to add and/or replace a master authority record
during the outage, a message will be displayed to the user:
<ul>
<li>Connexion client (1.60 or 1.70) will return the message "An
error has occurred…" if either the Add record or Replace record is
invoked. If the user attempts to add a record from either the
online or local save file, other error messages may be presented.
<li>Connexion browser will return the messages "Add failed
" or "Replace failed " , depending on the action
selected by the user.
</ul>Should any type of error message be returned, the user can choose to
save the record to the online or local save file, or cancel
changes. <br>
