[yul-naco] Reminder: NACO moratorium coming!

[Manon Theroux]

Dear NACO catalogers,

Just a reminder that there will be a 2-3 day moratorium on NACO record 
creation/update in RLIN starting on Thursday, May 19. RLG has assured us 
that all saved records with a "last-updated" date of less than 60 days will 
be migrated and will be immediately available for update as soon as the 
moratorium is lifted and we begin working in RLIN21 next week.

This would be a good time to check your save files and make sure you don't 
have any old NACO records floating around. Produce them if you can; 
otherwise update them if they are getting close to the 60-day cut-off.

Many thanks,

-Manon
