First Activity
Planning the program for ALA annual. The primary focus : In 2018, Library and Archives Canada (LAC) replaced its ILS with OCLCâs WorldShare Management System (WMS). As a part of the transition, LAC split its single, bilingual authority file Canadiana Authorities into separate English and French language files and joined NACO in order to manage its English-language authority records. This panel will discuss this national libraryâs history of bilingual cataloguing, the reason for the changes, and the attempt to ensure that the two files âtalkâ to each other.
