Abstract The researchers extracted a disproportionate stratified random sample from 40 years of thesis bibliographic records at Concordia University in Montreal, Quebec. Match rates for thesis authors in the LC/NACO Name Authority File and in Canadiana Authorities were examined. ProQuest digitization of older theses, the creation of an institutional repository, the move to electronic theses and dissertations in 2011, and the implementation of vendor-assisted authority control in 2017 impacted bibliographic records. In addition to the dearth of matches in general, results uncovered false matches and significant changes to Library and Archives Canada thesis authority control practices over the years.

论文目录的回顾性改进和国家主管部门文件中作者的匹配率

摘要研究人员从魁北克蒙特利尔市康考迪亚大学40年论文书目记录中提取了不成比例的分层随机样本。审查了LC / NACO名称授权档案和加拿大当局中论文作者的匹配率。ProQuest对较早的论文进行了数字化，建立了机构知识库，在2011年转向电子论文和论文，并在2017年实施了卖方协助的权限控制，从而影响了书目记录。除了普遍缺乏比赛外，多年来发现的结果还包括错误比赛以及加拿大图书馆和档案馆论文权限控制实践的重大变化。
