Abstract
Reviews a project undertakn at the University of Oregon involving exporting uniform title authority records to disk. Shows that a backlog, be it of books, maps, or authority records, need not always be a negative and can in fact provide further opportunities for learning. Suggests a means of retrieving authority records, stockpiled as a result of backlogging, into a local system in a timely fashion.
