How do we obtain LAC verification for personal name Canadian headings?
You may search OCLC to find headings formulated by LAC on LAC-issued bibliographic records and use these as authority in your 670 • 670 $a OCLC search [date] $b (LAC hdg: ….. usage: ….) Alternatively, you may search the LAC authority file in the AMICUS database. Note that it is not necessary to search both these sources. If the personal name heading is not found in one of these sources NACO catalogers should create and contribute an NAR for the heading with a 675 citing the source checked. No further LAC verification is required (cf. DCM Z1, 1XX section).
