Dana M. Miller, Amy Jo Hunsaker

• The University of Nevada, Reno Libraries’ Metadata and Cataloging Department partnered with the Special Collections and Digital Initiatives departments to obtain NACO certification. To meet the needs of our users and better represent Nevada figures in the Library of Congress Name Authority File, the three departments collaborated to create a new workflow and a tool that effectively extended name authority work and record contribution beyond traditional MARC cataloging.
