RE: Match point for auth record overlay

["Strouse, Mary" <STROUSE@xxxxxxxxxx>]

That's true, but it means looking up and typing in the Innopac record number in each case. Still, this may be the best approach if you have a totally home-grown system, and no money for an authority vendor.  Whether its better to put the Innopac .a number in each 949, or first put the ARN number in the 010 of the existing records depends on local conditions and the number of records you have to deal with.

I believe you do not have to be concerned about what your library's 
overlay match point is, when you are specifying in your 949 command line 
the authority record number of the record to be overlayed.
