face=Arial>About this time last year Carol (our NACO specialist) saw something
about the list but couldn't find a link online. So she wrote to Peter
Goodman, NUCMC Cataloger at LC. He explained that the ITOAMC terms are
kept in an Excel spreadsheet and that "new terms were added about once every two
years." In an attachment he sent her a copy of the spreadsheet as it
appeared last October and that it what we have been using.
