This committee advises and makes recommendations on matters relating to quality control. During the first year of operation, the committee concentrated on the quality of retrospective records input by member libraries, the need for OCLC to give high priority to deferred records, and the definition of a unique record. The establishment of an OCLC Advisory Committee on Cataloging was endorsed and opinions from SOLINET member libraries were solicited through SOLINET Memorandum 1975-32 and a questionnaire distributed on November 4. SOLINET libraries were reminded that the quality of records input into the data base depended upon their adherence to OCLC standards. (Author)
