The source of catalog cards sent to the libraries differs from the source of cataloging found in PUBCAT. Libraries receive catalog cards from Brodart and OCLC. PUBCAT records come from the Library of Congress database and OCLC . If a library does not receive cards, the resubmit procedure should be followed.
