CC:DA ALA Annual Report 2023
Report on CC:DA Meetings, February 2023 Submitted by Keith Knop, MLA Liaison to CC:DA The 2023 midwinter meeting of CC:DA took place over two days, February 6 and 10.

Minutes will eventually be posted to the CC:DA public space on ALA Connect: https://connect.ala.org/core/communities/community-home?CommunityKey=289a372f-3ec1-4cb0-8a75-902a1a18deb3; the old CC:DA blog under the ALCTS webspace will continue to be available but is no longer in active use. Much of the first day was occupied by the report of MARC Advisory Council (MAC) liaison John Myers and in particular discussion of paper 2023-DP01 from the Library of Congress’s Network Development and MARC Standards Office, which proposes adding a subfield to field 264 to record formatted but unsubfielded publication statements. The desire for this subfield arises from LC’s commitment to supply MARC records to other libraries,
