Dear NACO catalogers:

I've updated the NACO section of the "Authority Control at Yale" website 
(http://www.library.yale.edu/cataloging/authorities/names.html) with:

1.  Some links to new NACO FAQ. LC has split apart some existing FAQ and 
added a new FAQ on geographic names; also, they've added a new corporate 
names question, addressing names that include endings like .com:
http://www.loc.gov/catdir/pcc/naco/corpfaq.html#9

2.  A link to a new web request form we can use to ask LC to add 667 
subject usage notes and/or change existing 008 values on NARs for those 
headings that are NOT valid as subject headings:
http://www.loc.gov/catdir/pcc/naco/nar667form.html

Example of this kind of subject usage note:
010 	__ |a n 79022086
035 	__ |a (DLC)n 79022086
040 	__ |a DLC |c DLC |d DLC
110 	10 |a United States. |b President (1974-1977 : Ford)
667 	__ |a Old catalog hdg.: United States. President, 1974-1977 (Ford)
667 	__ |a SUBJECT USAGE: This heading is not valid for use as a subject. 
Works about this person are entered under Ford, Gerald R., 1913-

-Manon
