[DCRM-L] CERL Thesaurus now available for use in Authority Toolkit

[Moody, Honor M.]

Hello all,


This will be of primary interest to NACO contributors.


Gary Strawn has added the CERL Thesaurus to the list of web resources available in the web tab:

http://files.library.northwestern.edu/public/oclc/documentation/#webtabcerl


This is still a work in progress, and one question is what information will be most of useful for the Toolkit to extract for use in the 670.  If any of you are referring to the CT in your authority work and use the Authority Toolkit, I encourage you to test this feature out, and to send any feedback that you have to Gary.


If you are doing authority work but are not using the Toolkit, this is my personal plug--it's amazing, and the web tab and extraction of viaf and wikidata are the best thing since sliced bread (also the extraction of  a single identity from an undifferentiated name heading). The general documentation is here:

files.library.northwestern.edu/public/oclc/documentation/


Best,

Honor
