Subject:  LC decision to cease providing controlled series access in 
bibliographic records

Have any libraries experienced any impacts in acquisitions from
LC's decision to cease providing controlled series access in bibliographic
records and creating and maintaining series authority records: e.g.,
approval profiles that duplicate existing standing orders; new series
standing orders; claiming missing volumes in a series; tracking title
changes within a series, etc.?

Would anyone be willing to share any procedures or documentation that
you have put into place to address lack of series access and series
authority records from LC?
