Abstract
Authority control, or the maintenance of consistent access points throughout a catalog, may not be the most exciting topic in the library world, but is increasing in importance as metadata schemas evolve and linked data applications emerge. UK has developed multiple strategies for maintaining its catalog's authority control, and, most recently, has undertaken NACO training!
