"Using OpenRefine’s Reconciliation to Validate Local Authority Headings." <i>Cataloging and Classification Quarterly,</i> 55, no. 1 (2017) Taylor and Francis: 1-11. http://dx.doi.org/10.1080/01639374.2016.1245693.https://hdl.handle.net/1911/92728In 2015, the Cataloging and Metadata Services department of Rice University’s Fondren Library developed a process to reconcile four years of authority headings against an internally developed thesaurus.
