How long will it take to pre-populate the authority file with non-Latin script references?
A7. The updating of records is expected to begin no earlier than July 13, 2008, but the number of records updated each day will be limited in order to limit the impact of changes on library systems that load authority records. The number of records updated each day will gradually increase, from about 100 per day to several thousand per day. As a result, it will take many weeks to complete the pre-population—there are potentially 480,000 records to be updated.
