Abstract
In 1985, the first computer-to-computer distribution of name authority records for cataloging was made through the Linked Systems Project (LSP), a networking tool that links the computer systems of the Library of Congress, the Research Libraries Group (RLG), and OCLC. Since then, two other LSP capabilities-record contribution and intersystem searching-have been implemented, providing the means for national sharing of name authority data among diverse systems.
