Abstract
Abstract The LC/NACO Authority File is a large cooperatively-maintained authority file that also functions as the Library of Congress local name authority file. In the Library of Congress BIBFRAME Pilots, catalogers access the LC/NACO Authority File as Linked Data in MADS/RDF serialization, through the Library of Congress Linked Data Service and the BIBFRAME Editor. This article explores the steps that enable BIBFRAME Pilot participants to complete authority work in a Linked Data environment. It also addresses the limitations, opportunities, and successes encountered by BIBFRAME Pilot participants as they interact with name authority data as Linked Data.
