<font size=3>Dear NACO catalogers,<br><br>
I was just getting caught up on messages posted to the OCLC-CAT list and
came across the following OCLC system alert (about newly added/replaced
authority records not getting indexed in a timely manner). Please take
this into consideration when doing your NACO work and be on the lookout
for problems. <br><br>
This morning I found 3 duplicate NARs in our online save file (which have
since been taken care of by the catalogers involved); they might have
been created as a result of this problem.<br><br>
