Abstract Mazal, the Israeli national authority file, is a multilingual, multiscript database combining authority control with identity management. Equivalent headings in each of the country's four languages of cataloging can retrieve all library holdings, in any language, connected to any heading in the authority record. This paper will describe the consortium of 20 academic, public, and special libraries, led by the National Library of Israel, which is the first communal authority file to be natively created within the Alma Community Zone. Even a worldwide pandemic couldn't slow Mazal down; lockdown proved to be an opportunity for significant improvements and new projects.

当准备遇上机遇时，运气就是什么：建立以色列的多语种，多语种权威数据库

以色列国家权威文件Abstract Mazal是一个多语言，多脚本的数据库，将权威控制与身份管理结合在一起。该国四种编目语言中的每种标题都可以检索与当局记录中任何标题相关的所有语言的所有图书馆藏书。本文将描述由以色列国家图书馆牵头的20个学术，公共和特殊图书馆的财团，这是第一个在阿拉木图社区内部本地创建的公共机构文件。即使是全球性的大流行也无法阻止Mazal的发展。锁定被证明是重大改进和新项目的机会。
