<p class="MsoNormal">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:<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">NAF = 69,099 total authorities; <span style="color:#C0504D">
62,611 had 040 $e rda</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">- 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.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
