The answer may have to wait until our NACO specialist is back at work
(she's in the midst of moving) because what I have is a hard copy she
printed out and gave me. If this is any clue, each page of the list has
the heading: itoamc_all_terms_deduped
 
Sorry I can't be more helpful.

At 

http://www.loc.gov/standards/sourcelist/occupation.html

itoamc is listed: "Index terms for occupations in archival and
manuscript collections (Washington, DC: Library of Congress, Manuscript
Division)", but there's no link to it. Ditto at

http://www.itsmarc.com/crs/mergedProjects/sorcecod/sorcecod/occupation_t
erm_source_codes.htm



Question for Doris O'Keefe: What resource do you use for obtaining
itoamc terms?

RICHARD NOBLE :: RARE MATERIALS CATALOGUER :: JOHN HAY LIBRARY 
BROWN UNIVERSITY  ::  PROVIDENCE, R.I. 02912  ::  401-863-1187

	I've poked around a bit concerning this question just now, and
in Columbia's cataloging documentation it says that ITOAMC is maintained
locally by LC's Manuscripts Division. So I've e-mailed Mary Lacy (who
works there) to ask her whether it's still maintained or not.

	 

	Oops, just got an automated reply that LC is closed because of
the government shutdown. Duh, and darn. We may have to wait awhile for
an answer.

	I certainly hope not since we've been using it as our chief
controlled vocabulary for occupations in NARs. But I'd be interested in
a definitive answer too.
