    Abstract
    The Alexandria Digital Library (ADL) Project has developed a content standard for gazetteer objects and a hierarchical type scheme for geographic features. Both of these developments are based on ADL experience with an earlier gazetteer component for the Library, based on two gazetteers maintained by the U.S. federal government. We define the minimum components of a gazetteer entry as (1) a geographic name, (2) a geographic location represented by coordinates, and (3) a type designation. With these attributes, a gazetteer can function as a tool for indirect spatial location identification through names and types. The ADL Gazetteer Content Standard supports contribution and sharing of gazetteer entries with rich descriptions beyond the minimum requirements. This paper describes the content standard, the feature type thesaurus, and the implementation and research issues. A gazetteer is list of geographic names, together with their geographic locations and other descriptive information. A geographic name is a proper name for a geographic place and feature, such as Santa Barbara County, Mount Washington, St. Francis Hospital, and Southern California. There are many types of printed gazetteers. For example, the New York Times Atlas has a gazetteer section that can be used to look up a geographic name and find the page(s) and grid reference(s) where the corresponding feature is shown. Some gazetteers provide information about places and features; for example, a history of the locale, population data, physical data such as elevation, or the pronunciation of the name. Some lists of geographic names are available as hierarchical term sets (thesauri) designed for information retreival; these are used to describe bibliographic or museum materials. Examples include the authority files of the U.S. Library of Congress and the GeoRef Thesaurus produced by the American Geological Institute. The Getty Museum has recently made their Thesaurus of Geographic Names available online. This is a major project to develop a controlled vocabulary of current and historical names to describe (i.e., catalog) art and architecture literature. U.S. federal government mapping agencies maintain gazetteers containing the official names of places and/or the names that appear on map series. Examples include the U.S. Geological Survey's Geographic Names Information System (GNIS) and the National Imagery and Mapping Agency's Geographic Names Processing System (GNPS). Both of these are maintained in cooperation with the U.S. Board of Geographic Names (BGN). Many other examples could be cited -- for local areas, for other countries, and for special purposes. There is remarkable diversity in approaches to the description of geographic places and no standardization beyond authoritative sources for the geographic names themselves.

    Abstract
    The requirement for and development of the Anglo-American Authority File (AAAF) is described. The mechanics of its production and updating are indicated and its role within British Library cataloguing practice examined. Further developments of the file are discussed and developments through IFLA towards international exchange of authority data are described, indicating both opportunities and difficulties. The EC-funded project AUTHOR is outlined and, finally, the British Library's work with the Library of Congress and American Library Association on extending LCSH to works of fiction is described.

    Abstract
    Outlines the benefits sought by the Anglo American Authority File (AAF) project in replacing with a common authority file the Library of Congress US Name Authority File (USNAF) and the British Library Name Authority List (BLNAL). Describes the progress and techniques in the implementation of the project to create the AAF in the British Library (BL) and explains how it is used by cataloguers. Phase 1 was completed in 1996 with the loading of USNAF. Records were in USMARC format but searchable and reusable in conjunction with BLNAL. Phase 2 to eliminate duplicates was completed in 1997 for personal names and corporate names will be dealt with in 1999 when the BL Corporate Bibliographic System is also due to go live. This will prepare the ground for Phase 3, retrospective conversion to integrate BLNAL with USNAF into a single unified file

    Abstract
    Reports an Authority Control Project conducted by Griffith University, Queensland, Australia, in order to find a means to reduce the cost of authority control while maintaining, and preferably enhancing, accessibility of materials. Describes current authority control at Griffith University and discusses the mechanics of the project. Looks at the 4 stages of the project: defining the current situation; defining the future catalogue; examining the 7 options; and deciding on a solution

    Abstract
    This paper proposes an approach for managing vocabulary for reference databases on the Web. The approach is directed at domain specific databases in which much of the referenced material remains in non-digital form. A combination of interactive and manual processes are outlined along with a proposed implementation approach. For this limited class of databases, it is suggested that the approach can significantly improve vocabulary management with relatively low costs in manual effort.

    Abstract
    Argues that the efforts to achieve authority control in online catalogues are both misguided and counterproductive. Contrasts the characteristics of manual and online catalogues, demonstrating that although authority control may be beneficial in a traditional, manually produced catalogue, it is of little or no value in the online environment. Suggests that in future authority control may be dispensed with, thus releasing professional library staff from routine cataloguing tasks and leading to a greater integration of library services

    Abstract
    Describes the experience of data conversion and migration at the libraries of the Home Office (HO) and the Dept. of the Environment (DoE), UK. Both HO and DoE libraries had changed from Anglo-American code cataloguing to AACR2 cataloguing in the mid-1970s. Both libraries were selective in identifying records for conversion initially to BLAISE-LOCAS. Conversion to integrated library systems from BLAISE-LOCAS MARC tapes produced problems in both libraries with location/holdings fields which were largely resolved at HO, but not resolved at DoE. HO experienced problems converting to a system with fixed field lengths. HO converted subject keywords to form a rudimentary, non-standard thesaurus which required the addition of Broader Term and Narrower Term to meet the challenge of computerized searching. DoE converted a non-thesaurus subject index to an authority file, but continued to maintain the index on a stand-alone DataEase application for use by cataloguers. Neither library converted acquisitions data

    Abstract
    In 1996, a study was undertaken at the University of Arkansas Libraries to evaluate the practice of front-end authority work for monographs copy cataloging. A sample of 283 name headings originating from Library of Congress, OCLC "Enhance" member, and general member copy was examined, and analysis revealed that 47.3 percent of headings correctly matched authority records already present in the library's local file. Another 41.3 percent exactly matched records in the OCLC authority file. These findings prompted the library to cease checking name headings at the point of cataloging. However, the level of inaccuracies present, combined with the value of authority records for cross-reference and note information, ensured that the Database Maintenance Unit would continue to review local headings reports and perform needed authority work.

    Abstract
    In Jun 1996 the Centre for Formats and Authority files was founded at Warsaw University Library, responsible for central files on personal names, corporate bodies and titles and the thesaurus of the central subject headings authority file KABA. the Centre coordinates cooperation between participating libraries, organizes methodic work, training and publications. No printed music is included yet but work is proceeding here. Entries for recordings, old printed music and manuscripts will be based on this

    Abstract
    Die Aufgabe der Erabeitung, Verwaltung und Pflege mehrsprachiger Schlagwortnormdateien erfordert erheblich Mittel und sollte daher am besten in Kooperation erfolgen. 4 europäische Nationalbibliotheken (die Schweizerische Landesbibliothek, die Bibliothèque de France, Die Deutsche Bibliothek und die British Library) haben gemeinsam eine Machbarkeitsstudie über die Verknüpfung bestehender Schlagwortverzeichnisse in verschiedenen Sprachen erarbeitet, um einen mehrsprachigen Schlagwort-Zugang zu ihren Daten zu ermöglichen

    Abstract
    A sample was taken of the name and title provisional, or minimal level, authority records created by Blackwell North America, Inc., during its authority control processing in preparation for the implementation of NOTIS at the State Univerity of New York at Buffalo Libraries. Analysis of the sample showed that approximately 10 % of theses provisional records were created unnecessarily, while approximately 7 % had Library of Congress Name Authority File recordsestablished since the vendor's work was completed. The remaining 83 %, which will require original authority work in order to be upgraded to 'full' status, are categorized in such a manner as to determine the best approach to achieving the libraries' goal of absolute authority control.
