The University of California, San Diego Libraries and the New York University Libraries, working together with the Five Colleges Libraries, have been awarded a grant from The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation to support development and implementation of the Archivists' Toolkit.

Universal Decimal Classification Consortium
http://www.udcc.org/
UDC numbers appear in the 080 variable field in OCLC records, so they could be used to help assign LC call numbers.
The Universal Decimal Classification (UDC) is the world's foremost multilingual classification scheme for all fields of knowledge, a sophisticated indexing and retrieval tool. It was adapted by Paul Otlet and Nobel Prizewinner Henri La Fontaine from the Decimal Classification of Melvil Dewey, and first published (in French) from 1904 to 1907. Since then, it has been extensively revised and developed, and has become a highly flexible and effective system for organizing bibliographic records for all kinds of information in any medium (it is well suited to multi-media information collections). It is structured in such a way that new developments and new fields of knowledge can be readily incorporated. The code itself is independent of any particular language or script (consisting of arabic numerals and common punctuation marks), and the accompanying class descriptions have appeared in many translated versions. UDC is in worldwide use, and has been published in whole or in part in 23 different languages. The English-language editions are extensively used both in anglophone countries and those where English is co-official or a working language (the British Isles, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, India, several African countries) and have a significant presence in other cultures as well.

Geographic Names Information System
http://geonames.usgs.gov
The Geographic Names Information System (GNIS), developed by the USGS in cooperation with the U.S. Board on Geographic Names (BGN), contains information about almost 2 million physical and cultural geographic features in the United States and its territories. The Federally recognized name of each feature described in the data base is identified, and references are made to a feature's location by State, county, and geographic coordinates. The GNIS is our Nation's official repository of domestic geographic names information.
The GNIS also contains information on geographic names in Antarctica which are approved by the BGN for use by the Federal Government.

rules, Library of Congress subject headings (LCSH) and Moving Image
Materials: Genre Terms (MIM) genre and form terms in MARC 21 format records
on Voyager. The procedure manual indicates which rules we are following in
any given situation and contains many examples. In addition, the CPM
contains local rules for uniform titles, supplied titles, local subject
headings and genre/form terms, and terms for use in the physical description
of archival moving image materials, with an extensive glossary of the
latter, including suggested MARC 21 coding. The glossary in particular
might be useful to institutions that deal on an occasional basis with film
or video."
