##  Training Initiatives

**Expansion/refresher NACO training provided **
**Series training provided to Yale and UC-Berkeley**
**NACO training materials adapted for training at LC**

**Notes:**

3nd bullet:
LC has begun to hire new catalogers and is adapting the NACO training materials for use in development of a systematic and modular name authority training curriculum.
[This is important because LC has traditionally not presented modular courses in name authority training.  The recognition that NACO “is doing something” right is a boost to the PCC ego]  

##  Training Initiatives

**ALCTS-PCC Collaborations**** **
**Two train-the-trainer sessions for Basic Serials this fall in Atlanta and Denver**

**Notes:**
The Task Group on Subject training development sponsored by by ALCTS/SAC/PCC/SCT held a presentation to preview the workshop to be held in Orlando as part of ALA Annual 2004.  The ALCTS/CCS-PCC/SCT Task Group on development of Name Authority Training is in the early stages of planning for its curriculum and future workshops.
